there are 25,000 guys playing chess here. they come from all over the world. have you ever thought of translating the site into german, spanish, french, ... I guess many players could help with their mother tounges (I konw someone for german 😉 )
would be great if everyone could choos his/her own language!
this makes the comunity really internationa, open, blabla...

The internationalisation of a web site like this is a massive job, and it means you must take a rather more formal approach to everything you do. I have been involved in a project before where we did this, and it required lots of tools and some full time translators. (For example, I would be unable to answer feedback)

It is way beyond what is practical for a non-commercial site like this. Sorry about that.

Try this for a French version. Goolge will translate into many languages as you browse. Very cool.

I can imagine...
But why not just translate the playing area?
All news, the forum, ... stays English.
Just the things that are "fix" are availible in different languages.
