I agree with just about everything you wrote. We've recently made some big changes to our standalone website (www.groupcard.com), that focus on simplifying the experience of creating and signing cards. Our facebook application is frankly lagging a little behind in that area. But we are working on streamlining the application, and we will certainly keep your feedback in mind. If you have the time to try it out, I would love to read your impressions about creating a card on www.GroupCard.com. Thanks! Bob Ralian GroupCard CTO Dear Krys
