The SVG pieces used on Wikipedia are available under the GPL, and have been effectively used by me in a chess project in the past. I believe they're all made by a single author, who I originally contacted to have them multi-licensed and could probably be reached again if needed. Using SVG for this allows smooth user control of the board size which makes for a better user interface. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Chess_rld44.png Is one example (it's a complete set, with both transparent and multi-colored backgrounds for both piece colors). Let me know if you're interested in further details. -jason
