A good suggestion

Hey Chinesepod,

 

Have you ever heard of a site called yellowbridge? If so, they have a good set up with their flash cards. If you get the answer wrong or just don't know it they will keep the character in the pile until you get it right. This would help me alot with recognizing the characters quickly.And it has a good scoring system.

If you could do this it would be perfect!

I agree!  This would be a dream flash card program for CPod.

The other really great thing about the Yellowbridge program is that the user has many options, one being traditional and/or simplified support.  The only thing I don't like is the lack of audio.

I don't know how easy/expensive it would be for CPod to implement something like this, but it would be a huge improvement.  CPod could even have it set up like Yellowbridge, where free users have limited access and paying users have full access to all flash card features...see here.

To be honest, I rarely use CPod's vocabulary manager.  It's just not very user-friendly, and doesn't provide a whole lot of options/features.  I typically use ZDT or Yellowbridge, or PlecoDict when on the go.  However, it would be really great to have a good flash card tool on CPod to really hammer home the lesson vocabulary.
