There's a new tool on Codetown that lets you translate the entire site to different languages. Give it a try! You will see it on the righthand column. Hope this helps all you non-English as a first language people. All the best, Michael

I used Google Translate - actually, I saw it used on this site (which I love, incidentally) and I wanted to use the buttons, but I haven't found the code for it yet.

Thanks

Happy 10th year, JCertif!
