These are a couple of things that I would like to suggest. A way to see what country the flag is from by hovering over someone's flag icon. Someone like me don't have them all memorized.  Way to translate what we are reading. Maybe something automatic based on our own language that we choose in the settings or even some way that we know what language each other speak so that we can copy and paste it to Google Translate manually. This is a great site with many different nations together sharing the same passion. An easier way to communicate with each other would be awesome. Thank You

I'll definitely do the flags - good suggestion! On the translate thing, I did use to put a Google translate widget on every page, but the stats showed that literally no-one used it :/ I'll have a look around to see if there are any other translate gadgets out there.

Thanks for the quick response.
I don't mind doing a cut and paste. It's just that I don't know what the language is that I'm trying to translate.
If it's okay with everyone else, maybe some type of language tag associated with their profile. Like for example mine would be English.
Thank You

Hello.
It's a great idea.
Although in reality, you can always write in English and that the receiver translates into his/her language, whatever it is.
Bye

I've done the first bit - I've put the country names in as "hover overs" in quite a few places (let me know which ones I've missed!) Keep these ideas coming  - thank you!

mich00: Maybe the people could write it in English or they may not know how. I just think that people should feel free to write in their own language because, after all, it is their own blog and we go there to read it. Since there is easy access to a translator, I don't mind doing it myself.
Hollywoof: I think that it's an awesome job and I thank you for doing it. It's nice to see where people come from instantly without having to memorize what country the flags are from.
I do see some flags missing and bad reference links under the "Explore / Search by country"
*Iran, Islamic Republic of
*Macedonia, the Former Yugoslav Republic of
*Taiwan, Province of China
*N/A after Morocco
*Europe
Thank you again

Sorry, I think that I have not explained well. What you are reading is written in Spanish. In a general forum I translate my text into English. In a personal blog, I translate to his/her language or to English (I trust most in the google's English dictionary than any other). Anyway, I've included a footnote, just in case! It`s just my way for understand us. Regards 
===If I have said some outrageous, is the fault of the google translator ===
