I love this site, I really do. I've just finished another review. I review by writing the kanji down and comparing my writing with what's on the screen. As I haven't finished the first book of RTK yet, I feel a little out of place saying this, but ... It's too bad that the font used on screen is MS明朝 -- I have a few fonts on my computer here that I'd rather use. I am not failing my kanji because they are ugly now (as long as the elements are all there), but I want to practice with something that looks more like handwriting. Brush or pen, either is fine, and I have a good font that looks like professional brushwork that I would feel better imitating. When I finish RTK 1 I definitely need to review again and improve the layout of my strokes so the kanji comes out with good balance.
In firefox, I can go into the options and change the default font, go into the advanced settings box, and check a box so my font choice overrides the web site's font choice, and then do my reviews. Then I have to change back or every other web site on the internet looks awful. I use a HGS 教-nantoka font, and it's terrible for eigo. The process is irritating. Am I the only one that does this? Is it too much to wish for that the review pages use the browser's preferred serif font? Would that upset people I can't imagine? Is there an easier way? Maybe I should use a separate browser with crazy settings just for my kanji reviews.
