Random Ubuntu Advocacy - Elvish Version

So, Andy Loughran, AKA Eärendur of Dorthonion, has been busy translating these images into Elvish. Not wanting to upset our pointy eared friends, or the Elvish Linguistic Fellowship [I hear the E.L.F are BIG on Ubuntu!], I've uploaded Andy's translations and made them available from my file server. Thank you Andy, I think!?

The complete Elvish set can be viewed on this demo page. You can help spread the word of Ubuntu to the oldest of all common races by copying and pasting the code below into your HTML/blog template:

Can of worms anyone?

Random Ubuntu Advocacy - Turkish Version

Also, I'd just like to say a BIG thank you to everybody who is helping out by translating the images and spreading the word — the translations and links are appreciated not only by me, but also by the webmasters and blog authors who are using the images and spreading the Ubuntu love. So, THANK YOU :)

Random Ubuntu Advocacy - Dutch Version

So, I'm beginning to wish I'd named the original post something else, I had no idea that so many people would help out with this. Anyway, Vincent of the Xubuntu Blog has very kindly translated the images into Dutch. Thanks Vincent :)

You can see a Dutch Ubuntu randomness demo here. The code for the Dutch images is below, simply copy & paste the code into your HTML/blog template where you would like the random image placement to occur:

Random Ubuntu Advocacy - Italian & Portuguese

I think I've said this before, however I'll say it again, the Ubuntu community rocks! For me, it is the main reason why I use Ubuntu, albeit a modified version.

Portuguese images

Anyway, while I've been tucked-up in bed and snoring my head off, Miguel Wahnon Monteiro has very kindly translated the Random Ubuntu Advocacy images into Portuguese. He is also hosting them from his domain. Thank you Miguel :)

I've also uploaded Miguel's translated images to my file server, to ease/share any load. You can see the demo here. The code needed to display the images is below:

Italian images

Also, Davide Pedrelli has been busy translating the images into Italian. He has also put together a couple of modules for the Joomla platform 1.0x. I'm not familiar with Joomla, but if Davide's site is anything to go by, I'm sure the modules work well.

As with Miguel's images, I've uploaded Davide's Italian versions to my file server. You can witness the demo here, and the code needed to display the images is below:

Finally, Aldo Latino has also translated the images into Italian, before converting them into a rather nifty animated gif. Nice work, thank you Aldo :)
