Looks like the Great Firewall or something like it is preventing you from completely loading www.skritter.com because it is hosted on Google App Engine, which is periodically blocked. Try instead our mirror:

legacy.skritter.cn

This might also be caused by an internet filter, such as SafeEyes. If you have such a filter installed, try adding appspot.com to the list of allowed domains.

Can't get animations to work in Ubuntu

I went to yellow bridge and of course it mentioned the need for java and flash. I installed java and flash plugins and even went to the adobe site and got the install for ubuntu.

I am so relieved to see that Skritter animations work fine.

Your developers must have carefully chosen an animation method that will run on all platforms and avoid such problems.

I am enjoying using Skritter along with the Ubuntu pinyin, taking notes in an Open Office document.

also works well on fedora 15

a good site that tells you how to setup fedora after the initial install(including flash) is personal fedora
http://www.mjmwired.net/resources/mjm-fedora-f15.html



If you have trouble follow the instructions at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Flash
for 32 bit


For Chinese , Japanese and Korean

sudo yum install yum install fonts-japanese fonts-chinese fonts-korean scim-pinyin

wacom support is reasonable (bamboo touch)

opensuse + chrome works very well too. Except that you need a really fast computer and even then there is still a lag between the 'dot' moving around in sync with the mousepointer and the strokes being drawn on the canvas. But one gets used to that. These days I use skritter mostly on my android smartphone though :-)
