Template:Chess image
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This image is originally from xboard. The background color of the image was made brighter, and it was then scaled down using imagemagick (mogrify) from a higher resolution 129x129 version, because xboard images are not antialiased. Xboard is GPL'd; I'm not sure about the technicalities of GPL/GFDL compatibility but this image is freely redistributable.
The naming is as follows: chess_xyz40.png where
- x is the first letter of the piece (k for king, q for queen etc.)
- y is l or d according as the piece is a white piece or a black piece
- z is l or d according as the piece stands on a light square or a dark square
chess_l40.png and chess_d40.png are empty light and dark squares respectively.
chess_xxl40.png and chess_xxd40.png are empty light and dark squares with X's. They can be used in chess diagrams.
