Hello,
I've inserted another set of chess pieces I've created. [With the
exception of the Knight which I saw on someone elses .sig] I am unhappy
with the coloring of the black pieces, the queens, the kings, and the colored
pawns. Unfortunately to make this board fit on even a large monitor a
6x9 font needs to be used (w/ 8x8 filled in). So, this set may just remain
used for a nice .sg or some such. Anyway, improvements on the above mentioned
are welcome. Further, I'd like to see some people create a chess set w/
board and all that fits 80 characters across and whatever down. With the
following properties:
1. Looks square
2. Discernable pieces
3. Colored squares that don't muddle the figures
Good luck,
Matthew
