Hello,
We have a cool chess implementation in Squeak, but its UI is rather outdated and, dare I say, ugly. I propose in the attached archive another skin with a nicer look & feel.
The pieces images are from Wikimedia Commons, so I guess they are fine for inclusion: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:SVG_chess_pieces
To try it, do
ChessMorph2 new openInWorld
or
(ChessMorph2 new squareSize: 100) openInWorld
Tthe board is scalable from its halo yellow handle.
(please ignore the previous version, where the black pieces were a little too large)

Nice Chess pieces :-) The size of the board is a little big for my use, I don't have a high resolution screen. And trying to resize with halo handle give interesting result, eg. the chess board is a layout table that will wrap in wrong places. (Same happens dragging resize handle in the original chess program.)
Best, Karl
