    Hi Danny,

    I notice that the links added by skimwords all have the class skimwords-link.

    Right now, they are shown in the same color and style as links that real posters actually put in to give information related to their posts. That means sometimes I may skip over a link the poster really intended, because I see it and think, "bah, probably just another skimwords link." (I know I could hover over it and find out, but I'd rather not.)

    Would it be possible to add something to the site CSS like

    Code:
    a.skimwords-link { color: lime }
    or the like, just so it'll be easier to tell those links apart from the ones a poster really meant to put in?

    Thanks,
    -Chap

    Great idea, I'll take a look at it in the morning.

    Did you ever get a chance to give that a try?

    Done. I used a color that matched the site colors, but also made sure they were readily apparent by using an overline text decoration CSS. Let me know what you think.
