Could someone put the a-h,1-8 things on the image (and any similar images...) - I'm not a regular chess player, and they help me visualise these things. Or I could do it myself, I guess. Martin 15:03, 1 Sep 2003 (UTC)

I've added coordinates as ChessBase spits them out (ChessBase is the prog that I made the diagram with) - I don't know if they're too small or what. Is that the sort of thing you meant, anyway? I won't be adding them to all diagrams though - there are just too many and it's too boring a job (I also find them a bit distracting, even at this tiny size) - but I'll include them in any others I upload if they're useful. --Camembert

Yep, that's exactly the thing. Still, if you and others dislike them, it's no huge deal. :) Martin 21:13, 1 Sep 2003 (UTC)

[edit] External link had unstable anchor

Unfortunately, name anchors in CCM fairy elements index are unstable, they change each time new index is generated. I hope to change compiler of indices and later to make the external link here more precise (and stable). Ruziklan 21:51, 7 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Ah, that's a shame - I'll cut the anchor from the link for the time being so it just points to the letter page. Are the anchors in the the Themes index also unstable? I think there are a few articles which link to them. --Camembert

Yes, shame on me. All anchors are unstable as they are generated by the same code. Simplest possible in the time of coding, I knew about unstability but I did not bother as anchors only served for moving within one index page. Now, when something from outside tries to link into indices, well, I have put that quite high on my CCM To Do list. I know how to solve it, but it takes some time. I'll let you know. Ruziklan

Thanks very much. It's a great website, by the way - I've spent many pleasurable hours exploring it. --Camembert
