.gif or .mov of characters

I am a Chinese teacher in the states and I am trying to free up some class time to teach characters and stroke order. When I taught Japanese I used:
http://web.mit.edu/jpnet/ji/kuten/index.html

But the characters are not all present--or are in altered forms,etc. Does anyone know of a similar site for Chinese (simplified) characters.

Thanks.

There is a software to help people learn Chinese character stroke orders.
http://www.monkeykingsoft.com

but please keep in mind this software is not free. after the 3-day trial period, you have to pay.

I am not sure how complete it is, but I always found this site very useful for character animations
