Metallic chess pieces

Original - External to internal: Rooks, Bishops, and a King and Queen (unsure which is which)

I think it has great eye-appeal for FP and looks beautiful as the lead image on the chess page, but it's not used right now and the background looks like a piece of paper with some crumples.. Does it need anything done?

• Doesn't look like the editors like that picture, which is probably a sign. It's not a very typical chess pieces, seems to be hand crafted, fairly low quality photograph, blown highlights... I like the current lead image on Chess, the black & white pieces is what everyone associates with chess, not a stylistic steel chess pieces. — raekyT 03:33, 10 August 2010 (UTC)
  • No, no, I only added it briefly and reverted it for demonstration. The lighting doesn't seem too blown out to me, and I was thinking the same thing that it's good to have one that shows both color pieces since that's a major aspect of the game. --I'ḏ♥One 07:16, 13 August 2010 (UTC)
• I agree with Raeky here. J Milburn (talk) 13:45, 30 August 2010 (UTC)
