Hey, Swamp Dwag. Is there any way NT. can translate french to english & vice versa. I may have found some French people wanting to look @ & possibly join our club. I have been talking to a couple that seem interested to share stories & pics. Anything we can do to accomodate them???

grfishmaker:
There are quite a few free translation programs on the net. The site below works very well. It will translate the whole NT site into french, german, chinese, you name it.. You can either type out a message in english and have it translated to french and then email it or you can type in the internet address of the site that you wish to translate and it will search the web and translate it. Really quite amazing.
If you "blue highlight" any text, copy it, and than paste it onto the babefish site, ou just simpley pick the language you want and hit translate. 
 The "babefish" site is very, very user freindly, but I don't think it will translate into Nefie. Just kidding.
Give it a whirl!

   By the way grfishmaker it's not newfie, it's newf-in-ese. Say it fast three times & you got it!!  It's one word!!!   NEWFINESE !!!
   Listen Grfishmaker, can you combine that into NT. somehow or use it separate??? I was trying to see if we can make it easy for everyone to use & keep the name of Northern Tracks. Try & combine it all into one site, maybe. Sort of like an option. 
   Maybe Swamp Dwag will have something to offer.

grfishmaker:
Well now, I don't think you know who you are talking to. I'm still learning how to fly a kite, let alone try anything to fancy with computers.
It's pretty easy anyway. If you use the "babelfish" program and simply type in the "www.northerntracks.com" web address, it will change the whole site into the language you choose, everything from headings to individual category's. The only english you will see will be our user names. I don't think we can get any easier than that.

Swamp Dawg:
Sorry I missed this guys, I've been away from the site.  As far as I know, which isn't a whole lot, there isn't really a way to make a forum Bilingual since all the text is generated by the users.  If the site was a static information site then it could be bilingual no question.  If that translating program works then great.  The only thing we could do is set up the site so the text that is static is french like the headings and so on.  So when the user logs in or makes a new account, the language preference is asked then the site would work in french.  We would need a fair bit of French traffic to make it worth while to change.
