Paint is fair enough, yes. But don't save the images as bmp, do it as gif or png if possible.

How ti save it in .gif ?
When you choose a name for saving, choose a format below the name.

The subject of the tutorial is how to install non Latin languages on the computer. This can be useful for people speaking languages as Greek, Russian...

The problem is that it would be of more use if it was translated to each  non-latin language. Because, despite many know French or English, many more won't, I'm afraid. And this won't help them much. :-/

I had myself this problem : I often write in Greek and go to the Greek Internet. So I found the solution for solving it, and I give it to the others.
My Greek teacher had this problem : she had a Spanish windows and she didn't know how to read her mails.
So first I make the tutorial in English, and after we find the translators for the tutorial. Otherwise alone I won't be able to do it.

Just a little question for French speakers : how can we translate Poste de Travail ?
Here is how it looks like :

Here is how does it look in French, I reduced it a lot not to take too much space.

Thanks for the answer

Yes but doing it alone will be too hard. I can start by doing it in French and English, and then we can translate it into each language we need.

PNG is preferable - the GIF compression in Paint sucks.

Sure (Y)

My Windows is Spanish, so I doubt I can help you with the screenies. But if you ever want to translate it to Spanish, let me know.

Good luck. :)

I don't speak Spanish, so I won't be able to do it.
I speak Greek but my level isn't enough good to make the tutorial in this language.

As said: Let me know and I may help you.

You should ask around. There's pretty much people from different countries, you may surely find some to translate it to Chinese, Greek, Russian, Indi or Hebrew

I am writing my tutorial in English on Word, and for screen shoots, I'll make them in French.
