Hello, with all… <3

Here I would like to know why we do not set up a French part on the forum? I think that by doing a little pub on graphic webzines. One can have much members and mixes it cultures would be sympathetic not? :popcorn:

I would like to have opinions?

Yours sincerely, :huh:

I had talked to Faken about sections for different languages but he denied since he wouldn't be able to moderate it I suppose :popcorn:

if he adds extra sections he will have to add, chinese, japanese, korean, french, german, dutch, hebrew, arabic, spanish, french.

Every major language :D

And then find a moderator for each language <3 Just add a topic then sub-forums so it's like their own section :huh: The forum would grow so much :popcorn:

I don't care if it has a part where you can select it to be french but all French would suck lol

Edit: just read your last post I think thats a bad idea, because there would need to me so many moderators and Dan may not be able to communicate with them all...

lol, it's just funny to see "patron biseauté" instead of "bevel boss" in French Fireworks version...

There would be too much "Québecois" speaking probably as well lol

seems kinda redundant to have a section lust for French speakers, also then everyone will want German Spanish all types of stuff.

I think that before P2L goes into other languages, their should be a significant fanbase for that language in the first place. Anthony-Hlb is the only one that I have seen to request this feature, there may have been more but I haven't come across it. And ofcourse their would be other English-speaking members who know how to speak French also, but their should be a higher number of people who would make it all worth while...

I am fluent in English and Portuguese, and I studied French in high school for 3-4 years and Italian in primary school (I just know very basic sentences). If their was a Portuguese forum, then to tell you the truth I would continue using the English version, as that is where the majority of discussion as well as the majority of people use...

My 2 sents. ;)

Actually, I get language requests on a daily basis via the contact form.

Tutorials in French, Italian, Dutch and Spanish would be kewl we get people submitting them in different languages now it's a shame they get deleted because we can't read them. Few Forums I visit do multi languages and they all go well.

After all this is the internet it's not just for english we're connecting to the entire world. ;)

I think it's a cool idea.
It'd be interesting to have tutorials in our languages too (in my case, Spanish) ;)
