    Someone should tell mr Smeets to cut the brand off his suit jacket. It’s not supposed to be there after it leaves the store…

    @nyika
    I think for most of us the board is large enough. Myself, I didn’t even use the fullscreen toggle, so it should be visible for most at full screen, isn’t it? Maybe I’m not getting your point correctly and you mean a chess board in chess software style, like a Chessbase instruction?

    I think he wants to say he can’t see the pieces properly? Some white pieces on white squares are a bit hard to see. For me it’s ok though.
