I compared the code in drawdiagram.php to the code in Game Courier, and I found one difference that made a difference. By originally creating the board as a true color image, I got the backgrounds of the images to become transparent. However, the result is a JPG image, which looks fuzzier. I made a correction for that in the code.
Excellent! We are close to being able to start converting to true scalable anti-aliased images, which will be a *huge* improvement. That said, as one who has spent over a dozen painstaking hours editing in Inkscape in the last two days, there is a lot of work to go ...
While it is nice to have anti-aliased pieces, I do have a strong aversion to some shades of aquamarine, and the shade used for the black pieces feels uncomfortable to me. The original alfaerie pieces have more of a steel blue color, which I personally like better.
100% agreed that the colors cannot change, but I think this was just an accident. The color is supposed to be 5984bd but is instead 2984bd. I think it was just a typo on H.G.'s part, since the 2 is just below the 5 on the numeric keypad.
Also, @H.G., if you have to re-render anyway, is there any reason the white can't be true white? Not a big deal since you can't really tell, but if there is not a reason not to, I think the white should be ffffff for consistency.
