... that I give the groups a chance now. In flickr I never saw any feedback to my photos from theme groups. I think simply because my photos are boring and don't really catch the eye amongst all the other great shots there... AND because there probably aren't that many people who leave comments at the group anyway... Or are there? How do you act if you send your pic to a group? Does it has to be the rule to comment one per post or is it normal and polite anyway?
I think what I want to say here, people, is that if you invite a picture of mine to a group and I don't post it right away then it is probably only because I din't have time, or will, or energy to look at other pictures in the pool and to write something useful about them. I have noticed that I am not that eager to say *nice pic!* to a stranger too for I know plenty of people who are allergic to that type of comments and really expect more... But I can't speak English some days. Now it would be very rude if i left the comments in my native language... Hahaa -- j/k :)

Your photos are not boring - and don't worry about leaving comments in your native language - I can only speak English, so I have no choice! Everyone should not be forced to speak English; this is a good community because of its international colour and flavour... I might not understand what you write if you write in Finnish or whatever - but I won't be offended!

I like Ipernity-pabel too :) Actually I feel much better here where most people speak second language :). And It is ok by me that it happens to be Engish... I have learned Germain at school and I can still understand nuthin' of that language. One would think that 700 years of slavery and german ansestors makes different -- I tell you there are so many influences and loans in Estonian as we speak it now -- and still it is so hard language for me to learn. And I am glad for English also because it uses Latin alphabet. Generally I am not even that worried about murdering a beautiful language with all the stupid mistakes and wrong use of words I make -- what I fear the most is that I seem rude :).

Could it be possible to add a direct link to Babel or other to translate what one does not understand?
Sally Gal replies:
I believe there are many people out there who are interested in that sort of thing... And as far as I know ipernity team they will probably work out something soon :)
To be honest I haven't searched that hard maybe, but I did run a little search couple of weeks ago -- and I could not fingd Estonian-English translator. There sure is something for German and French -- I am sure of that.
What saddens me most is that there is not even an Estonian-Finnish dictionary in web :( I could use that.

I agree that French is easier, but Swedish is allmost as difficult, unknown on Babel...
Your English is very good.
