The problem of asking for localized screenshots is that they are not
only about the applications, they show contextual text or images
(directory names, file names, photos, documents and so on). So,
improvising can result in something inappropriate, strange,
disrespectful or unintentionally funny. I need to know some of these
things (at least those you think that are important):

1. Translated strings in Turkish for "Documents", "Music", "Photos", "Media"

2. My selection of music may not be appropriate for screenshots
because I don't have any Turkish music (I listen mostly to progressive
rock and Brazilian music). :)

3. "Fake email" in Turkish for Evolution screenshot.

4. Meaningful fake user data in Turkish for the "About Me" Dialog.


Cheers.
