Those generated invitations don't show class or effort—they show a half-assed, tacky attempt. A simple e-mail will suffice in most situations nowadays, but if you really wanted to put some effort into your invitation, then actually put in some real effort and design one—or rather, pay someone to do it for you. I doubt any talented graphic designer would ever consider using those sites. The notion that someone must log on to a website to generate an invitation, lest they been seen as lazy, is ridiculous.

We have become a quite sloppy society in general and there is no excuse for it. E-mail has its place, but how nice it is to receive an actual invitation by post. I also enjoy wearing a suit and tie to work, but that is another story. RST I agree…very well said indeed. We have become a quite sloppy society in general and there is no excuse for it.
