Exclamation English Manual / English Guide to Kartonmodell-Forum

Dear all,

for all international members (and potential members) we have
available for download now a comprehensive manual / guide
in english language.

This will lower the language barrier drastically - so please visit
us at www.kartonmodell-forum.net , join the community and
share all those discussions and download goodies.



Download the PDF (2 Megabyte) from HERE!

Consisting of 12 pages it gives a detailed how-to-navigate-and-use overview.
Version 1.5 is the newest edition.

The »Guide to Kartonmodell-Forum« was compiled by Sheila Mertens,
one of our first members living in the Netherlands. We are grateful
that she did such a good job.

Have a nice weekend
Thomas Pleiner

Thank you very much Thomas and a special thank you to Sheila, who also happens to be a member here. Thank you Sheila for all your hard work, not to mention your beautiful models!

This is a long awaited help for many of us multi-lingually challenged members and will definately be put to good use!

Thanks Thomas and Sheila! I have tried to register at your sight before but was thrown by the differing language. Used your pdf guide and presto! - all registered and browsing your sight within minutes.

Thanks heaps,

Grizz

I most certainly agree Thomas, as new members join here every day, a pointer to this topic every now and then is definately needed.
If you will notice, this thread has been "stickied" so it will, at the very least, stay at the top of this category.
This manual is a huge help to those interested in your site, which means anyone who even likes card modeling!

Thanks for all you do Thomas, in promoting this wonderful hobby!

Russell

Gotta agree with Russell! Just joined last night and the translation page was key to navigation for me! Of course, now I am kicking myself for not paying attention to my German classes in high school! If I had only known... Thanks, Thomas!

Thanks, Sheila and Thomas!

I have been hesitant to use the site so far because of the language barrier. If I may ask a typically anglo-ego-centric question, does the forum software not offer a language option like some others?
