useful kanji pages
The two most useful kanji pages for me at my own site are currently the Henshall sorted-by-id page and the Henshall sorted-by-UNICODE+urlencoded page.
At the moment both are just simple blank on off-white pages : I am using them so often because I put the Henshall number and the UCS value into the margins of my kanji exercise book.
The page that I use the most often is the radicals page at jisho.org
My current favourite kanji are that for 'loom' and 'elephant' - and that for a few reasons ! Do you recall anything of note about these two characters ?
機
象

Japanese kanji by grade: gold on indigo
The Curl applets for Grade-based Japanese Kanji were updated today.
Here is an example with both a popup menu and the FIND panel:
The gold-leaf on paper dyed with indigo motif is one that I first saw in the Minneapolis Institute of Arts collection. In fact, 'indigo', as the boundary between blue and violet, cannot be displayed on computer screens. My choice is created using HSV parameters sent to the Curl classes for Color and Background. The 'gold' is also not the www standard. Results will vary depending on your software and hardware.
