Noticed in the tutorial post that yello piggy was looking for some german tutorials so thought I'd post this. It works pretty good for multi language translation so may help some who's main language isn't english. Just type in the website you want translated in the bottom area and click the language. Seems to work pretty good but you have to be precise from what I noticed. Ex: The tutorial page here is http:www.photoshopcontest.com/tutorials Here is a sample of one of the tutorials here.

and here is a link to the translator.

also good for having a good laugh..

Dutch translation sucks bigtime Laughing
the thing translates every word literally (non-context bound, giving pretty amusing results Laughing)

hmmmmm....I really only know english so kind of hard for me to tell. Hate when things are literal...no fun. It's probably not the Dutch as much as it trying to figure out what us english speaking ppl are trying to say...we talk with too many words.

Hehe, MindGraph, find some page in German (.de) and translate it to english. You may be sure that it works the same both way.

But sometimes it is good enough to catch the sense of the article.

that's what I was kind of hoping for. That you can grasp enough to use more tutorials. Glad it's doing that. I am going to try a german site out just to see.
Thanks!

just checked out a german news site...not too bad. I understood what they were saying and it was kind of humorous to read due to certain words getting lost in translation. I'd be curious is someone did a tutorial with the translator in PS and let me know how it works out.
