(My vote would be for "Vélos et accessoires de qualité".)<br /><br />Ampersands (&s) are not used as a general substitute for "and" in French. Check to see if the same is true for Dutch and any other European languages you are thinking of adding. (It looks like you got this right for the Spanish version.)<br /><br />French doesn't use the same capitalization rules as English for headlines, labels, and other telegraphic phrases. Generally, only the words up to and including the first noun, and proper nouns, are capitalized. HOWEVER, these rules can be set aside for commercial or stylistic reasons. For example, while "Vélos et accessoires de qualité" would be correct, "Vélos et Accessoires de Qualité" would be commercially acceptable. You might want to double-check whether different capitalization conventions apply to the other languages, as well.<br /><br />I would place the French version first, to acknowledge the French inspiration underlying Vélo Orange.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24415034.post-9552622928815195952011-01-17T13:44:03.186-05:002011-01-17T13:44:03.186-05:00I'm liking (in order of preference) #1,2,4.
