Today I've been working on allowing players to change piece colors when the board is displayed as an image. Recoloring is not available for boards rendered as tables or with CSS. It works best for the Abstract pieces, because they are the simplest in design. It also works for Alfaerie, Magnetic, and Motif pieces, but the greater detail of these pieces makes a perfect recoloring job more difficult. For the new Alfaerie pieces, there is one more issue. It has to convert them into 256 color palette images before recoloring them. So, they don't look quite as good as the unrecolored images. As long as you don't change the color, the pieces will not be recolored, and they will look as they normally do. I plan to work on this more tomorrow, but for now, I have copied my work to the main server to keep it from being overwritten by the backup at midnight.
