Some people had asked about being able to hide the pinyin and prompt with definition only. We don't currently support this because of possible ambiguities, but it's certainly interesting. Just wrote this in response to a feedback email, thought I'd share in case anyone else was interested.

If you want to try it out, it wouldn't be that hard to do: you could make a custom CSS rule for Firefox that would hide all Skritter definitions:

(quoting from http://coreygilmore.com/blog/2008/10/23/per-site-custom-css-in-firefox/):

1. Create a file called userContent.css in your Firefox profile directory, inside of the chrome directory. This will be inside of %appdata%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\.default\chrome on Windows. If you've been upgrading since very old versions of Firefox the profile directory might be called default.xxx

2. Paste this CSS into userContent.css:

@-moz-document domain(skritter.com) {
#word_rdng_value, #word_rdng_value .deemphasize .inner {
color: #f8f8f8;
}
}

3. Save userContent.css, close and re-open Firefox.

This will make the pinyin very, very light in color, so that you don't see them by default but can still check them as needed. You could also go to #ffffff to make them entirely invisible, or something like #f0f0f0 for a bit more visibility. Tone colors would override these, which could be bad or good according to your tastes.

It might look complicated, but it's actually pretty simple, so please give it a shot and let me know how that goes for you. If it's good, we might try building a similar option. On Windows 7, the path I used to find the right Firefox Profiles directory was this:

C:/Users/winter/AppData/Roaming/Mozilla/Firefox/Profiles/7q4fsygu.default/chrome/userContent.css

We'll be doing audio-only prompts this month, too, but that will work slightly different than this.
