Several of you mentioned the first launch in 2004. You are correct, of
course. I forgot.

Ethan is also correct. Stamps.com has a very restrictive policy statement
plus it appears to me, in skimming the setup page, that you must send your
pix to Stamps.com for approval and printing (I presume). So you don't get to
print the pix yourself. If you send a pix and Stamps.com determines pix is
unacceptable pix, they may charge a processing fee of $10.

Stamps.com's definition of unacceptable content is like the definition of
porn for many, 'we can't describe it but we'll know it when we see it.'
