Flickroom team is looking for people who can help them translate the strings to different languages. If you think you can do it well, jump in right away! Just write a mail to contact@flickroom.org and we will send you the strings that we need you to translate. As of now, we are looking for translators for the following lanauges:
- German
- French
- Italian
- Spanish
- Chinese
- Japanese
People who help us translate the strings will receive a mention on our website for their contribution.
UPDATE:
- We will now be supporting Polish, Portuguese and Korean in addition to above-mentioned languages!
- We are now looking for German, Korean and Chinese translators as we have already translated the string set for other languages with the help of some amazing community members!
Happy Flickrooming,
