I’m Senior Web Designer at a large European Company,  
producing effective designs in multiple languages is very challenging, for example, Finnish seems to have an average 10 chars per word!  
My team and I produce loads of mini-sites, although this one (all my own work) has come together really nicely.

The languages are all xml driven, with the language selection stored in a SharedObject, a possible improvement to my movie would be to accept a language parameter, so the site would load in a target language 1st time.

Let me know what you think, comments appreciated,
