Absolutely stunning! Where did you get the custom pieces from?

You inspired me this time.

How's this?



I think this background pic really gives it that "tournament hall" feeling.

1) Bugs fixed: almost all known bugs so far, including:
- Can't detect engines which space characters in their paths
- Did not use init strings for engines (those strings work as command line parameters)

2) Some small improvements/adjustments

3) New features:
- Customization clock: position, colors, font sizes
- Remember multi-users' themes and layouts
- Piece size can be scaled
- Create opening books PGN and EPD

Hell yeah it does Brendan! That is really nice! The Pieces were created by Maurizio Monge under GPL. You can find them here.

https://poisson.phc.dm.unipi.it/~monge/chess_art.php

What I did was use two of my favorite sets created by him and merged them (Fantasy and Spatial) into one set that I call Blended. The ones I use are in Svg format. you can get them from my GDrive.



Now as to the Theme resoures for the wood board, everything you need for it is located here.

A suggestion for a future improvement:

Logarithmic scaling would make the graph look better, if one does late adjudication.
Otherwise most part of the graph will look flat, even when the scores were already quite high.

If you double click you sould see a drop down with the personalities, using the scroll wheel on my mouse shows each of them. That's what I see with ProDeo and Rodent IV on my system.
