Thankyou will do!!
You can search the membership data base for countries, states, collecting interests and so on. Just go to home page, click on 'members' and you'll see a 'search' option. Very cool, huh?
Another collector of Finland here--and the Aland Islands as well.

Thanks for bringing up my name, but like I wrote on my response to 2010ccg's private message, my supply of modern Finnish (or Alandic) stamps is very limited. Most of the items I get end up as part of my world collection, and those few duplicates I might come by go out usually within a week or two as part of my swaps. So I fear I can't be of much assistance for anyone looking for copies of modern Finnish stamps (except maybe Christmas stamps).
All in all the Finnish Post is pretty much like Royal Mail. Special commemorative issues (like minisheets and some booklets) are available mostly in philatelic counters at major post offices, whereas regular post offices and outlets focus on selling labels, definitives and seasonal greeting stamps. I guess it's pretty needless to say what kind of stamps get used the most

I just listed several more recent Finnish stamps.
It seems that Finland has issued several odd and unusual stamps in the past 5 years Do we have any collectors on Stamporama?
