The problem is pretty close to what I assumed. I think I'll wait until I have an opening in the pages, and make the Icon Clearinghouse its own thing, a display page similar to the graphics pages already on the site. I'll reserve the ID here for use as a personal "notepad" of sorts, reminding me of what moves I associate with what icons. (That'll allow me to take out certain icons that I'll never use myself.)

...allow the user to add a number of 'very exotic' icons he needs to the Diagram's table, selecting those from some other table that you embed yourself in the page (E.g. showing white icons only, without name or move, and let a click on those add them behind the King, which then would also reveal the image name.) Perhaps all automatically added pieces should go into this table.

I think that this would be a good idea.
