Oh, and lma, I tried the Paintbucket option inside the white knight using an online photoshop web page.

It didn't work for some reason.

Dern.

I'll keep looking....

Are you honestly saying that you play worse than this? :)

I've been mentally scared since getting beaten by my friend's 9 year old brother. So the day I can beat the n900, will be the day I get my payback... hopefully :(

^ I'm not even going to wish you luck on that, rather I wish you someone else's skill. :)

From this site...

The chess pieces are beautiful but only 55x55.

I can add an extra blank pixel for each of them, but can I legally do this?

Sorry, but I don't have the first clue to internet ethics. :)

Check their licensing.. Also if it's for personal experimenting purposes, I don't see why there would be any legal issues..

Ughh... Too much legal language grumblings.

In a nutshell, can I just steal their junk? :)

Not according to clause 10. But you might want to contact them and ask in case the graphics in question are not their copyright and available under some more liberal license.

Internet Ethics? Wasn't aware that such a thing exists.

Well, I already knew ahead of time that I would be breaking most rules with internet copyrights once I shared the new voice sounds for this game.

I was just trying to limit everything wrong I'm doing here. :)

It's hard for me to tell how active development is with Miniature. Its proponents tend to be boastful, but I've yet to see a decently usable version after what seems to be years of development. I have installed Miniature quite a few times, only to remove it. But maybe that's because I only have an N900 (actually, I have two of them now).
