A sub-section of the Arty Factory website, the Ancient Egyptian Hieroglyphs is essentially dedicated to teach you how to draw Egyptian art. Part of the site is dedicated to discussing the Rosetta Stone, but the description is brief and neglects the information about Thomas Young, and the method by which Champollion came to decipher the Rosetta Stone and the Egyptian language.
Nevertheless, the site does give useful information on the Hieroglyphic alphabet, such as which hieroglyphs correlate to which sounds and letters of the English alphabet and how they are used. However, it is mainly for fun and for translating English words into hieroglyphic form, not into the actual Egyptian language.
