Simple way to make your postcard
  1. Open PowerPoint.
  2. Go to Page Setup and change the page dimensions to 4x6.
  3. Insert image(s) onto PowerPoint screen.
  4. Add WordArt for title or greeting
  5. Get creative by rotating images, apply filter or border effects (PowerPoint 2007 only) or change background color.
  6. When done, go to File / Save As and change the file type to *.jpg.  You will be asked a question "do you want to export every slide in the presentation or only the current slide?"  Choose "only current slide".
  7. Congratulations - you know have an image that you can upload to a photo-sharing website and then embed into the Google Map
Of course you can use any photo-editing software to make your postcard - but PowerPoint is so easy - give it a try!!!
