Web translators wanted... please
« on: July 25, 2005, 11:54:01 AM »
Hello!

If anyone is interested in translating the AmiKit web page to his/her language, please let me know. I'd be happy! :-) I think there's not too much text to translate. Thank you!

What is AmiKit?

If no native French speakers volunteer, I could do the translation to French. It'd be understandable but maybe not as pretty as if a Frenchman did it.
I like Amigas

Hum,
You could use bablefish; which is preferable than editing multiple webpages for different languages...

Babelfish is good to let you understand things but it screws up grammar completely most times. It won't look professional at all.

Quite bad in my opinion.. Though it is better than nothing and gives you the ability to understand some of it atleast.
