The preceding represents the current state of the diagram showing the icons I've uploaded here. Some notes:

  • Right now they're just in the piece overview. I'd hoped to have them in a scrolling menu at the side, in the manner of the playtest applet. Fixed.
  • Only about a third of the pieces I've uploaded are shown; I'd also hoped that the rest would appear appended to the end, also like in the playtest applet.
  • The moves shown on this list are either "official," common, or recommended.
  • The piece name on the list isn't necessariliy the name on the graphic. Do an "open image in new tab" (or some other trick) to see the image name. (Or ask for a recommendation!)
  • I wish I'd gone through them all before uploading, and made sure they were all the same size instead of ranging from 35 to 48 pixels. You have my apologies for that negligence. If may go through at some later date and create a page dedicated to the collection, in which case I'll make sure they're all equally sized (maybe even in a variety of sizes).
  • There's more to explain and discuss, but that can wait for another time.
