Introduction

Some time back there was a thread on QRP-L about making QSL cards with the computer. I had been doing this for some time, using quite a collection of graphics and publishing tools to acheive the desired result. All in all, I was pretty pleased with my card.

A lot of amateurs, however, don't have the collection of tools at their disposal that I have, and for many, simply looking at a blank screen gives them a sort of writer's block. I concluded that it would be kind of fun to write a program that would produce QSL cards easily.

Well, it has been a LOT more fun than I imagined. Even the very first, primitive version was well received. But the best part has been the steady stream of good ideas to improve the program from amateurs all over the world.
