Use google translate. Copy'n'paste the contents into google translate then copy'n'paste the translation into a new document or email or whatever you put them on. I have never attempted to read spanish, let alone tanslate it but i will get lessons in about 8 months time. (From beginner level) sorry! It sounds good, i may try it, what exactly contain?

Thanks Harpseal, actually someone from the forum read this thread and sent me a PM saying he was interested in helping out :).

About what it contains, there's an editorial, diagrams of an intermediate model, an interview, a photo-gallery, a crossword puzzle, and a game of guess the model :).

Actually it's a virtual bulletin in PDF format :). With some luck there'll be an English version of the February issue :).

Welcome once again to the Neo-update. I'm your anchor: Gerardo.

On todays top story: sightings of a new superheroe. Local navigator declared: "I was in the deck of my boat reading an article about an indonesian origamist named Hadi Tahir, when I saw a man screaming because his friend Steve seemed to be in trouble while scuba diving. That was when this flash of white light came out of nowhere. It was Super Dude! Without hesitating, he dived into the water and a second after he pulled out Steve. He sure saved the day!" We have also been informed that the caped heroe was seen in the Whatchamacallit Forest. In order to make bento boxes, the forest mice must loose there home: the whatchamacallit tree. This affects the ecosystem, since this mice are an important part of the roadrunner's diet. Super Dude gave the cutting companies 365 days to find an eco friendly way of making this boxes.

And that's it for tonight... thank you for watching!

And we're back with the Neo-update. My name is Gerardo and this is today's story:

An out of control circus! Everything started with a scared elephant during the last performance in the Madison Square Garden. The elephant, without knowing, stepped on the bull's tail which went charging against the rhinoceros. Ilse the Magnificent (the animal trainer) didn't know what to do, as she watched the heron start to fly, darting against the crowd. The Eurasian scops owl followed the lead of the fellow bird. Even the monkeys stopped dancing at the beat of the accordion with all the racket. The only hope was the homing pigeon, to which the Great Isa (the ringmaster) tied an S.O.S. message for the authorities to read.

At the end, the authorities managed to save the day. When asked, they declared they suspected of the rabbit arguing that such a cute face probably hides something very sinister.

And that's it for tonight... thank you for watching.

I would not suggest using google translate to translate it.

GT translates it directly from spanish to english, resulting in a really weird outcome. It would be acceptable, but would make much more sense if you were to pay a translator, or have someone volunteer. I forgot a lot of spanish because i didn't speak it often, but if i could remember more, i would definitely help to translate.

It is only a machine.... It was only an idea to use GT. My batmobile is on Neorigami now too. I'm quite proud of it. I should use better paper. I also put a babylon 5 style minbari battle cruiser on there. Dreadful picture, with a full view of the embarrasingly bad sink on the front.

Hi, I'm Gerardo, and we're back with more of the Neo-update.

Within a shipment of thousands of brochures titled "Notes on photographing origami models", the police seized a cubic box with a cargo of verum flowers hidden among oncidium flowers. Verum flowers are processed and sold in the black market as "truth serum". Police suspect that this cargo belonged to alias Piggy and was supposed to be bought by The Rabbit. Don't forget a recent news story in which the serum was hidden within quill pens, that way a person could get close to its victim without him or her suspecting a thing. That was how alias Ray made undercover police officer "Santa Claus" blow his cover. As a consequence, he and his partner "The Fox" were murdered in the line of duty. The Fox was killed while reading a magazine article on "Making photo-diagrams".

Let’s hope this painful story won't ever repeat itself.

Stay updated with the Neo-update. Good night.

I got the Batmobile up for certain now, i know it's not just me because other people have told me they like it and to shoot from a better angle next time. I also put up the pokemon Serpirior and Samurott, neither of which are very good but they used proper paper, which is good.

My name is Gerardo and welcome to today's presentation of the Neo-update.

The carnival is in town! Like every year, we can see the traditional baby dragon flapping its wings, but this time we can also find new characters like Jetray from the popular series Ben 10. The cartoon owls dance with the bulls which, like every year, have migrated from the Scottish highlands. In this occasion we have the honer of counting with Sebastien Limet: the new French talent. Another popular character that accompanies us is Lugia, the grand creature from Pokemon which is animated thanks to a team of professionals that start to prepare for this great task with months of anticipation, giving life to this noble creature during the festivities. Lugia dances at the rhythm of the tarka, the pan flute, and the quena, all of them directed by our flying mouse, the grand symbol of the carnival.

So what are you doing in home watching the news? Come with us to the carnival!

The lugia, the baby dragon and jetray are mine! Why oh why did you have to choose the three with the embarrassingly bad pictures? Better pics hopefully coming soon. :oops:
