Good job! I used ChessV to produce nice pictures for Wikipedia article on
Capablanca Chess, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capablanca_Chess.

Wish List:
* Would be nice if settings made in 'Options / Board and Pieces...'
would be kept between program starts.
* I use 800x600 screen resolution and games with 10x10 board, e.g. Grand
Chess doesn't fit on my screen. Would be nice if the board is scaled
automatically when window size changes, like in Arena.
* Pieces are flashing when you make a move. This can be fixed e.g. by
using double-buffering technique.
* Can we have Three Checks Chess in ChessV (see
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three_Checks_Chess)? Zillions plays it quite
pure.

Thank you for development of this nice program!
