Not sure if my post of this a few days ago got sent...so resending.

Thx dave

I'm using scid vs ps to play on FICS ...

1. when you click offers graph does not seem an obvious way to go back
to the 'menu block' that was there before you display offers graph.

2. Can you configure not to show computer robots in offers

3. How do I 'talk' to an opponent...they often say gg and I'm not
clear if I hit 'send' with text in box it goes to them.

4. When I make the screen bigger on a Ubuntu 14.10 desktop, the picese
slightly pixelate (blurr). Is there a better set set of pieces to use.

5. I have droidchess on my andriod phone...is it possible to send
chess games into scid-vs-pc from this...or do you recommend another
chess andriod app...there are loads of them ! I.E I want to record my
proper chess games in scid-vs-pc and want the best way to add them if
I type them into phone at local chess club after match.

Lastly, FANTASTIC program...happy to contribute if I can help.

Thank you,
Dave
