- Zhongwen.com: Chinese Characters and Culture
http://zhongwen.com/ - "This website counters the simplistic myth of character inferiority by translating traditional Chinese character etymologies into English to show how Chinese themselves have used and understood the symbols they created." All characters in GIF format. Uses frames. Also has lists of Chinese dynasties, Chinese names of famous Chinese-Americans, common Taiwanese pronunciations, and common Chinese surnames, among other things.
