ProZ Find allows you to make one decision at a time and provides real-time guidance on the number of service providers who meet your criteria. In addition to translation, ProZ Find provides first-class support for many other services including interpreting, subtitling, proofreading, copywriting, project management, localization, voiceover and more. https://www.proz.com/find

New "About me" editor and localization for your profile »
Your "About me" is one of the most prominent parts of your profile and a great tool for describing yourself to potential clients.
While you have always been able to customize this section using text, images, and various styles, this process has recently been made easier and more visual. Adding images or formatting text in your “About me” no longer requires learning HTML code. Instead, these tasks can now be accomplished through the use of the new visual editor (similar to a word processing program such as Word or Pages).
