Stroke order diagrams

Anyone know where I can find an online resource for displaying stroke order in a diagram/step format for Traditional text?

There seems to be plenty of sites that do Animations kicking around but I'm looking for something in picture format so I can copy and paste into Anki.

So far I have only managed to find one site and it only displayed simplified characters. :(

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

謝謝你們!

Thanks but I think that is simplified too. At least it was for the word "魚 yú" that I was looking to add :(

The diagrams were great too.

In mainland China,the simplified characters have been used for several decades....it will be difficult to find the stroke order diagrams for traditional Chinese.You may try out this

I have an idea that you might want to consider. If you are in Taiwan, there is a good chance you have a mobile phone that allows you to input characters using stroke order. It can be frustrating at times, but if you play with it for awhile, you can start to get a natural feel for stroke order. I treat it as a sort of puzzle.

But yeah, can't help you with the stroke diagram. Sorry.

Thanks for the suggestion Jiangcheng but the website seems to use animations!

Xiaophil: I'm was just trying to add them to Anki as a way to remind me to keep practicing them. So the idea would be to write the word out and then see if I was correct.

Thanks anyway!

Try HERE. They have Simplified and Traditional characters. It costs only about $20 per year. You can prepare your own worksheets, and if you want you can copy the diagrams and paste them elsewhere - although you can only copy and paste one diagram at a time - quite slow.

Thanks go_manly

I checked the site out. A bit dated but all the essentials seem there (although I couldn't see how the worksheets will come out without signing up).

I will definately give it some consideration if I can't find a free alternative. It's a shame we can't add animations into Anki. Or if its possible, I don't know how!

Could you let me know what you mean by 'dated'.

I just meant it didn't look like the site had been updated in quite some time thats all... Or to put it another way, it seems to have the bread and butter, it's just lacking some jam to spread on top. :)

"So far I have only managed to find one site and it only displayed simplified characters."

could you kindly tell me the website where you find the simplified characters showed in stroke order in jpeg format?

just it seems very difficult in seeking such kind of materials, now animation of stroke order is everywhere.

thanks in advance!

I think the Yellow bridge site is quite good for Traditional stroke orders but it doesn't have everything I seem to remember.

There is also a Wiki Site dedicated to adding stroke order diagrams but it doesn't have everything again and I can't remember the name sorry.

What I do normally is type the Character into google followed by "traditional stroke order" and it usually comes up with a least a site to have a look at.
