I was talking to a friend the other day who happens to be a skilled photoshop editor - although he doesn't work on H. I told him about how scanlations work, and he brought up an interesting question: What's harder to find - good translators or good editors?
I was further reminded about this question when I read a post in the TV blog discussing a problem regarding editors. I also looked at my own situation and wondered if it could be possible to find a buddy translator for gTeam, but Tech told me that "fluent Japanese-to-English translators are hunted to extinction".
Now, I don't want people turning this into a ninja versus pirates thing between editors and translators... I'm just REALLY curious to know what the demographics of the whole scene is like. I can't generalize the scanlating scene as a whole, either, because I know H-scanlators aren't as commonplace as non-H ones.
So that said, I'd like to hear your opinions. Feel free to click your vote up on the poll placed on the gadget bar to the right of the blog. :)
