Subject: Re: Standards

What is standard,hm?I think in the real chess the Staunton pieces are a standard.In virtual chess the most computers and chessservers use pieces as we have here in Bk and they are very similar to the Stauntonpieces.In chessvariants.com they have the alfaerie-chessset.The icons for the chancellor and the cardinal are very logical and selfdeclarend.In Janusschess we have an icon,which was defined by the inventor and the januschessfederation http://www.janusschach.de/.
