Thank you Alex

Post by Palomino »

Alex, I want to thank you for posting step by step instructions for adding diagrams to posts.

I've tried several times in the past to add a diagram to a post and could not. Near noontime today I worked at it for more than an hour and failed in every attempt. When I returned this afternoon to the forum I was happy to find you had posted instructions for adding diagrams, it was just what I needed, I followed your instructions step by step, and WOW now I can add diagrams to my posts.

Alex, again I want to say thanks, I'm sure others will also now be able to add diagrams.

Regards, "Pal"

Ed, design is good, but proportions can be improved. You have to make an image of board / pieces smaller, comparable with standard letters / screen size.

Remember - diagram is only part of regular post !

That was a "joke" that I posted, as if I followed your instructions step-by-step and got a different looking board :)

Ok, maybe "bad joke."

But I am entering all of the games from "Sixth" into the program using that board. I have a new feature, "Movie Replay", where I can have the program replay the whole game while I watch, like a movie. It looks pretty cool.
