An apparatus is provided comprised of a digital camera having a button, a processor connected to the digital camera, and a telecommunications line connected to the processor. When the button of the digital camera is pressed the digital camera creates a digital image and sends the digital image to the processor. The processor sends the digital image out to the telecommunications line. The processor may automatically send the digital image out or may wait for inputs from a user before it sends the digital image out. The processor can be connected to an interactive device such as a computer keyboard or computer mouse. The processor is adaptable to receive a user input in the form of an electronic mailing address and the processor can send the digital image out on the telecommunications line to the electronic mailing address. The processor produces a first screen on a computer monitor. The first screen has a field for entering the electronic mailing address, a field for entering a message, and a field for the digital image. The processor preferably sends the digital image to the E-mail address in postcard format with a geographical indication of where its from.
