Ever want to look up a character but don't know the pinyin -- know how to write it but don't want to go through searching by radical? The online dictionary hosted on Chinese-Tools.com at http://www.chinese-tools.com/tools/mouse.html lets you look up a character by drawing it with your mouse. This is a Java applet that loads fairly quickly, and is quite easy to use. Searches in simplified, traditional, or both, and allows you to adjust for number of results and "looseness" of search.
