Photobucket has created a new application for Facebook–Photobucket Postcards can now be sent to your friends on Facebook’s social networking site.

With Photobucket Postcards, you can send an image, slideshow, mashup or video with a greeting attached. You can use your own Photobucket media, or choose from Photobucket’s images and videos catalog for your postcard, which is searchable directly on Facebook. Friends will need to install this application in order to view the postcard you sent. You can also add a postcard to your own profile. From here, friends will be able to forward postcards to other friends, or view the full size on Photobucket. This all works in the same manner as gifting other friends; unless you change your settings for this app, your postcard and who you sent it to will show in your feeds.

While the postcards you add to your own profile are saved, it would be handy to save those sent to friends as well. And while the other slide show creators like Slide and RockYou already have Facebook apps, this is the first for Photobucket. Considering its acquisition by MySpace, and MySpace’s own views on widgets, we’re rather surprised to see a Photobucket application on Facebook at all.
