Phantasy Star Cave Message Board

I need someone who can translate from Japanese to English so I can properly credit and name each fan art piece from the Phantasy Star 20 Anniversary art contest.

Does anyone who is capable have some free time to do this?

I would recommend Skymandr if he is up for the task

I'm pretending to have forgotten Benoit's request for a translation of the PSIV-dialog for the moment... ^^

OBSOLETE: ...and now neither of the pages works. I'll get back to it later...

For some reason at times a page doesn't show the thumbnails. It's usually solved after refreshing it.

I may have something to do with mixing japanase characters into javascript and visitor has western encoding. My Konqueror regonized the character encoding. But sometimes I have to set encoding manually. This is case of pages where header does not contain information about encoding, I belive.

I could PROBABLY help. I play imports, too, so I have some, if limited, vocabulary in japanese.

skymandr, do you have any more translation for us?

Ah, skit! Forgot about it! Not tonight, I'm afraid, but maybe in the morning.

No worries mate, please go for it when ever you have the time to!

I have plenty of time, but I lack focus entirely...

The first page is looking good.

... Amazing.

nice image, there, Zucca. Where'd you dig that up?

Scroll up a bit. ;)

BTW that SEGA's site is horrible. Site seems to complain about javascript randomly. O.o
I myseld design my pages so that if javascript doesn't work on some browsers, then it will be turned off and the page is still viewable.

Anyway I still managed to browse the pages after few reloads.
Hare are few of my favs:
