APUG full foreign language support is almost up and running (German, French, Dutch)

[bsdunek]

This will be great. I've always wondered what some of the others were doing. Just more fellowship with other photographers - a good thing!

[Q.G.]

I desaturated the flags a bit so they are not too overpowering..

When you desaturate the Dutch flag, you produce the Luxembourgish flag.

What's next, Sean, Spanish? There are certainly a lot of Spanish speakers in the world.

Want to reach a lot of people? Try Chinese.

Seriously though. A lot of people there looking for a place to chat.

Chinese would sure be a good idea for the provider, Sean.

But concerning Apug as idea see here:

Sean, the flag is really cool. You mentioned that the French forum was WIP, so may be this is a point that will be addressed but I am wondering if we could have the equivalent of "today's posts" in the foreign language forums. Because otherwise, it is not easy to see what the new posts are nor to have an overview of the new subjects without drilling into each sections of the forum.
Also, there are spelling mistakes in the French forum...do you want me to list them out so that they are corrected?

The german forum, shouldn't that be "APUG Deutsches forum" (or whatever it may be called in its native langauge)?

Sean and I have discussed the possibility of Japanese and Chinese language forums. First thing is to make sure that these character sets wouldn't play havoc with the database in a multilingual forum the size of APUG. Once Sean has Dutch, French, and German sorted out and running smoothly (and rolls out the new classifieds and deals with whatever else is on his list these days), Asian language forums are a possibility.

Filmverwenderfotografengemeinschaft?

Filmverwenderfotografengemeinschaft?

Filmverwenderfotografengemeinschaftsstammtisch.

I'd prefer the less colourfull version. I always see those flags first.

Waiting for that `all grey´ button.

Hmmm... What does that say about B&W photography?
