Each GIF image should contain in that order (horizontal layout) : wp wn wb wr wq wk bp bn bb br bq bk and have a transparent background. Then I will encode them in base64 and put the result in file bitmaps.tcl (you can have a look at it to have a better idea). Note that the size 75 is just skipped : I jump from 70 to 80 directly, the rest uses a 5 pixels step. This means 11 images are needed for each piece sets. > c) I *hate* the way picking piece set is currently implemented. > Options/Chessboard/PieceStyle/nameWhichNeedNotToTellMeAnything, > and if I dislike what I picked, again Options/Chessboard/.... > > It would be nice to have some popup window where one would > actually see example images. > > Or, if it is very troublesome, at least documentation page > with examples would help. Yes, the way square images are selected needs some work, and I am on it. My idea is to limit user choices, and to give him a limited number of choices, assuming all pictures are in the same directory (bitmaps/squares). So he will not be able to choose any file on his hard drive, but I don't think it does matter as it will be more usable.
