Hi!

It will be great if this module can be used with postcard module.

I can see features as - in latest birthday block near each name of user who has right now birthday can be link "send a postcard to this user"
(it can be allowed in admin birthday settings)

another use - on each user profile (and node profile too! :) if this user has birthday, or will be have birthday in next 2 days, there will be message "This user has (or will be have) birthday, send to him/her a postcard"

another feature - when the site automaticaly send the birthday mail, there can be link to default postcard for that user (or the postcard can be integrate to this mail...)

thanks for reading my ideas :)

Great ideas for improving the birthday cards handling. Drazzig is busy reintegrating the postcard module as I temporarily removed the implementation due to the large changes. It will be possible to select a default postcard in the admin menu, of course. The user then receives a message that a postcard can be retrieved at this-or-that location. All this is handled by the postcard module.

You additional features sound great. My first thoughts:
- Links in the blocks: I don't think there's much room, but maybe a graphical link might be an idea
- A link on the profile is a nice idea! A integration with the privatemsg module or the contact module might be a good idea too.

Of course: part of this will have to wait untill the basics work correctly.

Thanks for contributing these great ideas!
