Does anyone speak French or German?

I like how this group has grown and the quality of the postings is fantastic. But, being a typical American I only speak English (I learned a little Spanish in High School). I would like some help from some member(s) who speaks either French and/or German. I envy you Europeans who speak so many different languages.

I need someone who can help me write the rules in multiple languages. I want to make sure someone who joins knows what they are getting into. We can only feel free to post anything we want if rules make it clear ANYTHING can be posted. I worry that some members may not clearly understand the rules. Also, some people I've invited may have not understood what I was requesting. I would like to make an invite in multiple languages too.

The more people that join, the more viewers of your work.

If anyone wants to help, please send me a message and I will promote you to a moderator.

I can't believe than nobody writes and speaks both English and French. I need some help in translation of the rules as I do not speak any French.

The same for German.

How about Italian or Spanish?

Kleine, or Emile, I certainly could use some help in translating the rules for the group. If either of you would also like to be moderators? Not much to do. Maybe do some invites if you like.

The main thing is the translations. I want to be sure peole who join know the rules. i don't want someone to join that doesn't understand that there maybe some posts that are offensive to some people. I want nude and candid street shot photographers to have a place where they can post without having someone complaining to Ipernity HQ. No porn of course, but some graphic material is OK at this group.

German is a definate help. Germany has some very restrictive laws concerning candid street photography that would be OK by US standards.
