Hey peeps! I've just started translating posts for a client. Mind if I get some help?

Original post:
Is there anyway possible this picture could be cuter? Share your cutest baby picture that just melts your heart!

My Spanish:
¿Es posible que esta photografía podría ser más linda?
Comparta una foto que es linda y nos enamoramos!

Thanks!
Jerome
p.s. what hashtag should I use?

¡Comparta una foto que es linda y nos enamoramos!¿Habrá una foto más adorable que esta?
¡Mándenos la foto del bebé (más lindo) que derrite el corazón!

Awesome! Thank you. I had figured that "melts the heart" as an idiom wouldn't translate directly. But obviously you think it's ok. Where are you from? May I ask?

Also, any idea what kind of hashtag could be used for a photo?

You can use that hashtag (but not here, please).
A better hashtag would be one that is entirely written in Spanish (substitute foto for pic) and you may want to use title-case.

I'm from the midwest.

Ah, stateside. Guess I wondered if you were a native speaker then!

Thanks again for all the help :P

You're welcome.

I'm not a native speaker, no. You can wait for others to chime in if you'd like.
