I really like the new 'Printer-Friendly' element in the Game Courier
displays.  It's nice to be able to get printed pix of loaded situations
in the games, and particularly pleasing for me to be able to capture my
heavy investments in graphics in Imperial and Jetan-Sarang.  Great touch! 
Fergus, is that some of your doing?  EXCELLENT!  James Spratt

<P>Yes, it's my doing. David Howe wanted to print out games for sending to David Pritchard for inclusion in the second edition of his <I>Encyclopedia of Chess Variants</I>. So I added this feature. When I tried to use this new feature to print out positions in my Alice Chess game, my printer wasn't printing the board properly, because it was rendered as a table with background colors and transparent images, but the printer wasn't printing the background colors, and it was printing the color used for the transparent color of the pieces. So I added the PNG and JPG modes to be able to print board images as they appear on the screen.</P>
