Reply #2: Don't rely on the Internet to translate ANYTHING

[Lydia Leftcoast]

Babelfish and the like produce pure, unadulterated crap, especially in a totally unrelated language like Japanese.

You need a native speaker of Japanese to tell you what the equivalent of your son's titles would be so that they would make sense to a Japanese person. Otherwise, you will end up with the equivalent of the weird English that you see in the Japanese media, such as "For Beautiful Human Life" (slogan of Kanebo Cosmetics) or "Cedric the Driving" from an auto company or "Let's Sports Violent All the Day Long" from a maker of athletic ware.

Unless you have a Japanese friend who will be willing to translate the titles as a favor, you will have to pay a translator. Sorry, but translation is a skill and a way that people make their living. If there aren't too many pictures, you may be able to find someone to do it for $50 or so.

I won't do it, not even for $50, because my specialty is taking Japanese text and rephrasing it in English-language thought patterns. Unless it's something really simple, such as nouns like "monster" or "spaceship," I would worry about producing spacy-sounding stuff like those advertising slogans. If he has titled each picture with a paragraph or another lengthy description, you need a native speaker of Japanese.
