    Quick reply...
    That's the most humorous-and-productive thread I have ever had pleasure reading, I suspect. Thank you. I might give it a try soon, very soon. Personally, I prefer to bring everything with myself, so AI chess opponent in my pocket sounds better than having to catch Internet connection on the go.
    Best wishes. Thanks to everybody!

    These graphics are so much better. I wish the board still had the letter/numbers though.

    What about modifying "osso-chess/Undo_Redo.png", "osso-chess/Undo_Redo_dimmed.png", "osso-chess/Undo_Redo_pressed.png" and "osso-games-startup-chess.png"?

    I'm not all too sure, maybe just some extra fluff that was never used in the game I believe.

    I never saw those show up anywhere while playing.

    Sorry.

    "osso-games-startup-chess.png" is the banner within the program before you start playing a game (on the screen with play, restart, continue, expert, easy, et cetera).
    Undo-Redo buttons are in the right lower corner of the screen when you are playing a game, to allow you to undo-redo the moves.
    Just mentioning.

    Maybe you could give me an example using this site:
    http://cooltext.com/Logo-Design-Ghost-Button

    Also, I can probably put the coordinates back on the screen.

    Does anyone know of a special trick on how to reverse the H to A letters to make them A to H without flipping all of the graphics backwards?



    This one needs to be reversed as well.



    Those two graphics should be available to download at the end of this post.

    Cheers.

    Well... On Maemo 5, all these images (including "/usr/share/pixmaps/osso-games-startup-chess.png") are neatly packed inside package osso-graphics-game-chess, which is necessary for osso-chess-ui. However, while this link implies that Maemo 4, similarly, has osso-chess-ui, I could not find this package within Diablo repositories.

    Undo-Redo buttons... First, there are some neutral buttons. Second, there is a glass button. Third, there is my own random drawing attached.
    Best wishes.

    Can you create a deb. package for files:
    /usr/share/pixmaps/osso-games-startup-chess.png
    /usr/share/pixmaps/osso-chess/Undo_Redo_pressed.jpg
    /usr/share/pixmaps/osso-chess/Background_board_flipletters.png
    /usr/share/pixmaps/osso-chess/legal_move.png
    /usr/share/pixmaps/osso-chess/Undo_Redo_dimmed.jpg
    /usr/share/pixmaps/osso-chess/Black_White_passive.jpg
    /usr/share/pixmaps/osso-chess/pieces.png
    /usr/share/pixmaps/osso-chess/selection.png
    /usr/share/pixmaps/osso-chess/Black_White_active.jpg
    /usr/share/pixmaps/osso-chess/Background_control.jpg
    /usr/share/pixmaps/osso-chess/Background_board_flipnumbers.jpg
    /usr/share/pixmaps/osso-chess/Background_board.jpg
    /usr/share/pixmaps/osso-chess/Undo_Redo.jpg
    /usr/share/pixmaps/osso-chess/pieces_with_shadow.png
    ? Please?
    It would be a nice replacement of closed-source package "osso-graphics-game-chess". It could become part of CSSU. Like osso-calculator...
    Best wishes.

    I can barely use the command line.... there is no way I would ever understand what to do in making a .deb file for this.

    Sorry.

    By the way, I have also hacked or added features to Eboard and Scid (the best chess program available) if you're interested.
