Mini Links > other languages
You've gotta be kidding me, right? :) There are "GAZILLION" discussion groups about miniatures in other languages... To list all of them here it would take me 10 years and counting, as new ones pop up all the time!
Most are in English. The flag stands for the language, NOT the country:
=German, 
=Danish, 
=Spanish,
=French, 
=Dutch, 
=Italian, 
=Japanese.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Yahoo WILL NOT translate your messages. When sending messages to the groups, write them in the groups chosen language so that everybody will understand you.
GROUPS LIST:
Here I listed links to discussion groups on miniatures, in languages other than Portuguese. I'm a member in some of them, but not in all of them...
If you know of a blog, in languages other than Portuguese, about miniatures, please, let me know.
