Hi, Rob,
 no the photos are not stolen, that website belongs to Forumist Karel T, whose photos they are, as  far as I can see!

Although on this occasion all is fine ,the unautherised use of  photos of Pleione is becoming a big problem.
Due to this I intend to start marking photos I post on the forum as I have done on Ebay.

Hi, If you install the google toolbar it will give you a nice big button saying 'TRANSLATE' for anyone looking at websites not in English.

It does get things wrong but is still very good.

Hi everybody.
Sorry for a language chaos around my websites  :-\. Hope I'll add an English version soon. Until that time is a suitable way to use a google translater.
Karel.

Karel, i think i've sadi this before, but even though i love it when i can read the content of a webpage, i also think that we should preserve our native languages. Not everybody can easily learn another language and should still be able use the internet for local information search.

Well said, Lars, it is quite normal that a Czech site be in Czech or a Danish site in Danish.... why not indeed!  8)


 That Google button is very useful, though, eh??!!  ;)

Hi Karel

I agree with Lars and Maggi. I only posted about the google toolbar to point out to Rob he can read websites in other languages and for any others that did not know about it.

Great photo's by the way.

Regards

David
