The first one proposed by Fergus also seemed to have good contrast
This is nice except that the light squares are exactly the same as the comment background, so they disappear into it, so it should have a border color.
I originally made it using the Abstract pieces, but now that I see it with the Alfaerie pieces, it seems to work better. I like how the square colors contrast well with each other while also contrasting well with the piece colors. It doesn't look too bad without a border, but since it does use the same color as the comment background, here are some alternatives that don't.
