I would prefere mentioning the engligh word here by the translation, becuase 
hue, saturation, RGB, etc .. are more or less specialized words for the 
graphic designers.. so I would go on with your translation, but put the 
engligh word by it for clearification

Well If you give some tiime to check the fuzzy terms in the koffice.po that 
would great .. the file is almost translated, but as good as the 
non-translated if the fuzzy strings were not checked, and the fuzzy flag 
removed . to remove the fuzzy flad, remove the word fuzzy that comes in the 
line before the string ( remove the whole line if only the word fuzzy is 
there)

NO NO :-) you are doing great :-) and please remember adding the terms in the 
QaMoose so that they would be there for later referance
