My Facebook thank you msg.

Hello friends, I've made a Facebook fan page for my photos and I have a lot of Peruvian fans. I've been sending them thank you messages and was interested in any corrections that should be made. This is all me and no translator so it's probably riddled with errors.

Hola _____, gracias para llegas a ser un fan de mi pagina. Muy amable. Es agradable hacer a tu conocido. Sientate libre invitar (a la pagina fan) tus amigos que piensas sean interesado. Trato de ganar mas exposicion para mi trabajo. Casi todo mi trabajo es para conservacion. Quizas puedes disfrutar algunas de mis fotos de Cusco y Peru. Recuerdos, Brett

I imagine that there are some issues with sentence construction and overly literal translation. Thanks for any help.

Hola Brett,

Un gusto verte de nuevo por estos lados.

Just a few changes...

Hola amigo, gracias por ser un fan de mi página. Muy amable. Es agradable conocerte. Siéntete libre de invitar a los amigos que creas estén interesados en esta página. Trato de ganar mas exposición para mi trabajo. Casi todo mi trabajo es sobre la conservación. Quizás puedas disfrutar de algunas de mis fotos de Cuzco y de Perú en general. Recuerdos, Brett

Muchisimas gracias Carlos. Good to see you again as well. Estudiare tus changes and learn from them. Thanks - Brett1971, Mar 17, 2010
estén - is this "they would be" - I was trying to say "if you think they would be (or "might be") interested" - Brett1971, Mar 17, 2010
Ah, I see "puedas" this must be the subjunctive because it's unknown - I'm saying "you might" - Brett1971, Mar 17, 2010
Yes, both expressions are using subjunctive mood. - Carlos-F, Mar 17, 2010
Anyway, you also could say in the first one: "...que creas podrían estar (might be) interesados en esta página. - Carlos-F, Mar 17, 2010
And in the second one, you also could say: "Quizás podrías (you might) disfrutar de algunas ...." - Carlos-F, Mar 17, 2010
