What is a good way to find Chinese calligraphy for tattoos?

I'm not sure what I want yet, so I want to browse some calligraphy... I dont want chinese-english dictionaries though, just the calligraphy.

Go to www.chineseinkdesign.com and use their search engine. It's a commercial site, but you can use it for free reference... that should be good enough for finding your tattoo. I think they only make you pay if you want to download the character real big... good luck!

Shanghai Museum: A Place To Feel Chinese

It is known to be the place that carefully preserves the incalculable ancient Chinese art - Shanghai Museum boasts a collection of more than 120, 000 objects with a total of eleven galleries and three temporary exhibition halls. This outstanding museum of ancient Chinese art is positioned quite magnificently in the heart of Shanghai in People's Square.

Covering an area of 38,000 square meters, Shanghai Museum is a unique piece of architecture. The exterior of the building is a round shape with a square base which reveals the ancient belief of the square land and round heaven.

The permanent eleven galleries at this remarkable museum include the Gallery of ancient Chinese Ceramics, Chinese Seals, Chinese Sculpture, Chinese Bronze, Chinese Jades, Chinese Paintings, Chinese Calligraphy, Chinese Numismatics, Chinese furniture and crafts by Chinese Minorities.
Each gallery and priceless piece of art exposes the diversity of art work during various dynasties of ancient civilization. For instance, the gallery on Chinese furniture showcases furniture that date back to the Ming and Qing dynasties. The bronze ware is mainly from the time of the Shang and Zhou dynasties and there are more than 400 bronze ware pieces on display.
The ceramic collection is considered a highlight of the museum and the gallery containing ancient Chinese Ceramics also displays the different work of art crafted during different dynasties. The Chinese Sculptures is largely related to Buddhism.
Since China is one of the first few nations to use currency, the ancient gallery of Chinese Numismatics has lots to offer. There are almost 7,000 pieces in this gallery that denotes the growth of China as an economy and its economic relations with other countries.
The Gallery of Arts and Crafts by Chinese Minorities is also unique and special feature at the Shanghai Museum. In the long history of China many minority nationalities have settled down in the country. These minorities have added in their own bit of culture and as a result the overall Chinese culture has become ever more rich and vibrant.
Shanghai Museum can be called a one stop shop for those who wish to explore the wonders of ancient Chinese art. The experience is made much more pleasing and convenient since this one-off museum is situated in close proximity to numerous world-class Shanghai serviced apartments. For instance, Ascott Shanghai Pudong is an exceptional Shanghai serviced apartment that is renowned for offering top class facilities that suites the needs and tastes of even the most discerning traveller.
