I've wondered so I'll ask

[luke frisbee]

Does anyone know of a site that will let you enter words and it give you the character in japanese?

Luke...For translations & characters J to E and backwords, upsidedowns 'n stuff try babelfish.altavista.com
Here in the PacNorWest we've got a lot of fish by Himitsu(??) I used this website to look it up.
Goodluck.........Al

So I tried both of em...I couldn't get joe's site to respond, and aldonna's site would give me a tiny image(unusable for art) of some words but it didn't understand the word "koi" or "showa".
And I know I'm not internet smooth, but I can't get the characters. And I'm not alone.

[Joe W.]

Luke, try the Kanji dictionary site again. It did not come up for me either when I tried it the first few times.
