Thanks for that.

I have made a new directory in the SF file pages explicitly for chess pieces.
  
https://sourceforge.net/projects/scidvspc/files/support%20files/chess%20pieces/
and uploaded the new pieces (and your instructions/script) there.

Of course, the files are a bit all-over-the-place, and could be made better.
SVG makes some great quality pieces, and we probably need an
exhaustive SVG how-to.

cheers, S.
