I purchased one of them, which lets you export the characters as animated gifs. Then it was just a matter of matching them with the new characters taught in each lesson. In the process though we have to add audio for each character and add it to the database. When it's complete though, I think it should be quite useful as a tool for learning to read and write characters, especially when combined with the flashcard program. Hi Karan,

I'm especially impressed by the stroke order boxes. Can you tell me how you've obtained stroke order GIFs for these characters? Is there a database somewhere? This feature looks awesome!

You can practice using the worksheets we’ve created for you here along with our new character introductions. For me personally, I have a habit of writing 50 characters (half the worksheet) each day. This is a combination of new characters and reviewing old characters. [...] […] Learning to write characters usually involves writing it over and over again.
