Fansubbing

Well…I happened to come across an interesting thread on the animesuki forums. Basically, it’s a listing of fansub groups that are looking for help. I guess I’ve never really considered looking for groups to join, maybe because I viewed it as a translator-only thing, or I didn’t realize there were so many actively looking for help from…anyone, really. Anyways, I definitely got a better understanding of what’s involved in the process of fansubbing (this is actually a really nice article written on it), and now I can’t wait to help out as much as I can =P. I have no experience with most of the stuff, but I’m confident I can learn to do the typesetting/karaoke/encoding stuff with time. Luckily, there were also a couple groups looking for server space, and when I offered it seemed like it was really needed. Ah…this may sound korny, but I was actually really happy =). I feel like I can really help out the community now.
