Hello Ary, I did not want to discourage you writing tutorials in french. You did a good job. My comment about providing that tutorial in english was not some much about being unable to read it. I know that there are google translation services which I could use. But this only works if you know the url you want to translate. And that is my main point. It is the fact that 99,9+% of the population on this planet will never find your tutorial because they search in their native language or in english. This is like I would never find a darktable tutorial in Korean or Japanese or Swedish language. Simply because they do not show up in my search results. The google translation services are useless in that case. So I think that it is a pity that good tutorials like yours are concealed to the vast majority of darktable users. And I felt that since you are writing to an english newsgroup in pretty decent english I would be allowed to ask for an english translation. Please, never mind Matthias ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Darktable-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/darktable-users
