One problem with displaying names -- different players use different fonts. The name will be correctly displayed to everyone only if its letters are found in all Wesnoth fonts. Those people whose names are sometimes displayed wrong, will probably not notice it, because their font probably supports all necessary letters.

I just want to warn that Latin letters with accent marks are not guaranteed to work everywhere...

You know, Wesnoth doesn't use only one font. It's a list of fonts which is tried so it shouldn't be a problem. Only for the asian languages since those fonts are usually not installed.

it should be noted that user-made campaigns are often translated, so a space for "translators" might be desired. What is the exact text to use for translators - "Translators - {LANGUAGE}"? Or something else?

Also, having a blank for Scenario Contributors might be nice; just because there is one designer doesn't mean no one else contributed. And it also provides a place to put those who helped with WML.

I have not solved the translation bug yet, but I have added a new feature (I know, I know, bugs first.) It is now possible to have multiple backgrounds that are flipped through during the credits. Just add an 'images=file1,file2,file3' line into an [about] tag. See the Heir_To_The_Throne.cfg or about.cfg for an example.

Ok, I believe that I have solved the translation bug.

Currently the frames are evenly spread out so that they will complete when the credits complete and restart at the beginning as the credits roll over.
