I'm interested in helping you translate it to Bulgarian 0w0

Can I?

Hehe, no need to ask me. It's licensed under CC-BY-NC, so you can freely translate it to any language you want. ^^b

Don't forget to use the source files, as these should make the translation easier for you:

Or if you prefer, working off the original Japanese edition, you can download Seotch-san's source files from his page:

Thank you for the interest in Ubunchu! ^__~

Thanks for your help! I've just finished my translation

I'll edit the spreadsheet later

If you want to link to my translation, it is still the same for the first chapter

Cheers!

THANK YOU!!! YOU DID AN INCREDIBLE JOB WITH IT!! >v<

Everything is so nicely crafted just like the last one. I especially loved how it shows you had fun with the CLI-inspired Insert Page. ^_______^

I'll be adding this up in a blink of an eye! ^__~

loveleeyoungae Featured By Owner Jun 8, 2009

Oh, I'm bad at hand-drawing, I think I'll try to make my hands jittery then... ^^

Thanks for your compliment. I'm just the translator of a small fansub group, and I *shy* know nothing about graphic editors. So, it was my first time using Inkscape. However, Ubunchu has been spread more widely thanks to our fans

And yeah, about that GDocs spreadsheet, I don't know what it's used for? I think editing those .svg files directly is faster, right?

Fufu! Let me know if you ever need a hand with some of the sound effects. I can always help a fellow translator, especially now that the English piece is done (although I was about to start the Spanish one). ^^

Good thing also about Inkscape is that if your initial wording doesn't come out jittery enough, you can always rearrange the nodes later. If you need instructions on Inkscape use, the tutorials it comes with our great, but you can also check out my old one: [link] ^__^

======

The Google Dos spreadsheet serves two purposes:

1) Makes collaborative translations easier -- in your case, since you're likely the only person translating this, I think that makes that purpose obsolete for you. ^^'

2) Archives your translation in parallel with the others so that perhaps one day it can be added to a multi-translation format (a long shot). ^___^

Doing it directly onto the SVG offers the benefit of translating it in context, so if you prefer you can stick to that. But if you're willing, and after you've published your translation, it would be great if you could copy and paste your final wording into the GDoc for archival purposes. ^.^

Hi C-Quel,

I'm translating this new chapter

But I'm having one small issue, so I'd like to ask you for help: how did you make the shivering effects for those "Clutter" words on page 4?

Thanks in advance

C-quel Featured By Owner Jun 8, 2009 Hobbyist Artisan Crafter

Fufu! Those were hand-drawn by me using the Freehand Tool in Inkscape (otherwise known as the Pencil tool). ^^

I naturally have a very jittery hand (which is why I stick to vector artwork over raster), so it was easy to draw that with a lot of squiggles. Hehe... ^________^'

If memory serves, you did a FANTASTIC job with the Vietnamese translation of Episode 01, even to the point of translating my insert art. I would love to see your final with this one. ^v^

BTW, are you using the Google Docs link that Doctormo provided? That should make it a little bit convenient to add your translation alongside the other ones. ^^
