I'm editing this first post... Since it seems the main post. >_>
Hiya, minna-san.
All positions opened!!
PS: If you have a good knowledge in English and are good at pointing out mistakes, please, apply as a Proofreader. When I say you need to be experienced, it doesn't mean you need to have already worked in other Scanlators before, you just need to have a lot of experiences with the English language.
As for the Typesetter position, you need to read some tutorials and have already downloaded the fonts that are normally used in mangas.
You don't need experience if you're going to apply as Cleaner or Translator. We appreciate beginners who are eager to learn.
We're a group dedicated to finish forgotten projects...
The ones which have been dropped away years ago and weren't picked up by any group.
Don't you feel pity for them and their fans? Then, come join us!
We've already completed Yubisaki Milk Tea and Zoku Sensei no Okiniiri.
Our current projects are:
Watashi no Megane-kun
11 Eyes
Yama Fu-Tang
And we have a list of suggested projects to pick up next or in parallel with our current project!
Apply at our forum: http://lemon-tea.forumbrasil.net

You would proofread some chapters of our current projects, and later, the future projects.
For now, most of our proofreaders are absent, so we're really in need of a hand ^^
You would download the .txt files(or .doc files) containing the chapter's translations and download the Raws for that chapter(Both will be avaliable for you to see when you become a Staff Member). Then, you would correct grammar mistakes and rephrase some sentences, so that they would look better, and wouldn't lose their original meaning (this is important).
Don't have any specific requirements. If you're confident on your English Language knowledge, you're more than welcome in the group. ^^

does it have to be detailed proofreading?
coz i might not notice some grammar mistakes if its not noticeable xD
but i can prob fix the ones that stand out.
and rephrasing is prob no problem.

It doesn't have to be perfect, since we're going to do Qualit Check after the chapter is done.
If anyone notice the mistakes, then the chapter is probably good enough! And then, we release it. ^^

Anyway, id really like to help in some way, such as a proofreader or typesetter, but i have no experience at all. Is it possible to still help an anyway?

Are you guys still willing to take a look at another proofreader? I'm also willing to try my hand at quality checking, but I use picnik.com instead of photoshop.

Hmmm, really sorry, but we have a lot of proofreaders now...
And we have only 2 translators, and 1 of them is busy with real life, so we can't recruit more proofreaders for now.
I'll edit the first post, but thanks for the interest!
And you can sure be a Quality Checker... ^^
But only with photoshop, because we use PSD format to edit everything... :/
And that would be the only way to edit the text the typesetter put in.

I'd like to be a Korean translator, but I've no experience so I'd have to be shown the ropes to be of any use... Would you still consider having me on your team? 🙂
