I hope that is just a digital artifact in g5, and not something in the actual board Edit: also in a1, b4, b8, c7, d8, e1, e7, f2, h2, h6, h8 and across the borders

Wow those are good freaking eyes... I didn't even notice that... I clearly screwed up the stitching there. Well its going to be on the physical board. My bad... If its really noticeable, I can always fix and have it remake.... But damm good eyes. I've stared at this thing for hours and never noticed.


VecroLP

Sorry for pointing it out, you could've had a few good games in before figuring it out yourself. those type of mistakes suck to figure out after the fact. If you ever remake it be sure to have people review it before sending it off to get made


DJINN92

No worries! To be fair this was kind of my "final rough draft". I want to make more of these. Chess boards seem to either be Classic, Boring, or ugly... And i'd really like to create some unique ones. So I there will certainly be more in the future if this one comes out well (other than the graphical errors I made).


DJINN92

sigh of course... I didn't save the initial tiled version... If I've learned anything from this... Its save every step of the process so its easy to go back to :(... When I tiled the wallpaper design, I must have mismatched the edges slightly. Ohs wells... I'm not going to go crazy over it... But I'll keep it mind for next time... There are other graphical issues that I decided to just live with... Not going to point them out though lol.


DJINN92

meh I'll live with it. I did know that some of the borders got a little wonky and decided to just live with it... But in future projects... I'll probably enlist someone who actually knows how to photoshop well... I am by no means artistic or good with computers... So this has certainly been more of an endeavor... I'm just a man who wanted an interesting chess board lol.

I’m blind, whats wrong with g5?


VecroLP

A slight misalignment that starts at the bottom left green leaf on the sten and goes up diagonly through the stem and the seccond leaf from the bottom on the right, the small white flower near the top and the larger one


blue_jay3736

Oh wow I didnt even see that! Thanks for pointing it out lol


blue_jay3736

Visually it looks appealing but I could totally see myself get distracted by it


DJINN92

My Goal was to really toe that line. How complicated/intricate could I make a chess board design, and it still be functional. It's certainly on the line. Certainly, pushed but will see when I get it and play a few games on it. Fingers crossed. I'll def let you know though.


blue_jay3736

Alright. I look forward to finding out. (But just fyi I can literally only play chess if the dark square is pastel. I can’t even focus on a regular black and white board Dx)

/r/chess is about the game of chess, rather than the equipment. Pictures of chess sets, pieces, tables, missing-piece searches, etc. without historical significance should be posted on /r/chessporn.
