It’s easy to quickly draw a snail on the address side of every letter you mail. This snail image will make your mailman happy. I like to add the phrase “Save Snail Mail” along with the line drawing of the snail. Just enlarge the image on this post and follow the steps to draw a perfect snail every time.
If you need more help with this please email me for more detailed instructions for drawing a Snail Mail Snail.

The article on the front page of sfgate.com is about how the traditional mail boxes are on their way out. It was of no surprise to me that so many of the comments were about how very sad that is. Please read this article and then start drawing snails on all of your Snail Mail.

The U.S. Postal Service must make massive changes if it is going to survive.

This is Great
