Posted by chrisp uskidscompute.com 11/15/2005 12:17:02 play online chess	Subject: Web publishing Message: I am interested in publishing some chess games (both GK and other) as part of a website. I have used a couple of pgn to web type editors to produce the webpages, but would be interested in peoples views of any such editors they have had experience of. I have not found one with which I am completely happy - they are all good in some ways, but the ones I have tried have caused me more problems than I would like!! Thanks for any assistance. Chris

Posted by chrisp uskidscompute.com 11/16/2005 12:10:43 play online chess	James Message: Thanks for the suggestion. I enjoy much of the content on chessgames.com, it's an excellent chess resource. However, I do not believe it has software to enable me to publish chess games of my choice on websites otehr than chessgames itself - this is what I actually want to do. Cheers Chris

Posted by ccmcacollister uskidscompute.com 11/16/2005 22:37:56 play online chess	loreta ... Message: Wish I could remember more about it, as it was in the 90's and someone I knew had a setup where their chesscomputer board would input games to their Pc for publishing. I think that it went into ChessBase or if not, then BookUp. So that just by reviewing the game on their board, for errors and content, it would be all ready to reprint for publication. Believe it was J.F.Campbell or Don Maddox that used it, who should both be contactable via Google search. The former does The Campbell Report; & the latter edited Chess Life, ran LeisureLinc and now has a site. Both wrote for APCT, as did Jim Marfia who would be the only other possible for it. Believe it was Campbell tho. Can anyone recall the name of that sensor board? Lorenzo? Leonardo? No that's not right. Some oneword name. Does anyone recall that setup? It sounded very nice at the time. I'm not aware if it analyzed in the process, but that was beside the point if so. When I edited Metro Chess, so very much time went into game score verification, then typing afterward ... I would have loved to find this under my Christmas tree ! ... }8-)

Posted by odonata uskidscompute.com 11/17/2005 06:19:04 play online chess	Some hints on publishing... Message: Hi Chris, Just like you I've probably searched all the web for those programs and probably just like you, none of them is offering me full satisfaction. Yet I can advise you a few things: With chessprograms like Fritz8 you can publize your games. Advantage: nice lay out, easy to drop in variations and make comments in it, less good is the fact that it's less easy to incorporate it in your web pages (according to me). Another way to incorporate your games is via the website of ICC. You copy paste your pgn and they create the viewer, which afterwards is easy to incorporate in your website. -> www.chessclub.com Even if you don't know too much about programming, you can change the lay a bit (color of squares), you can always see an example on my website: -> users.skynet.be maybe this helps you a bit! cheers, Odonata
Posted by chrisp uskidscompute.com 11/23/2005 10:09:18 play online chess	Thanks Message: to everyone who responded. I will try out some of these options and see what happens. I hope to have a website to display the results on completed in the near future. Thanks Chris

Chess news: For 2 New U.S. Chess Champions, Diverging Paths Ahead -- The two newest United States chess champions have very different future plans. On Monday, Irina Krush, 26, won the women’s chess championship for the third time, earning $16,000, her biggest payday. Krush said of her prospects of earning a living as a professional chess player, “I am actually at the stage where I am going to get into it more than ever.” Samuel Shankland, 18, who won the junior chess championship in a playoff on Tuesday, plans to quit playing professionally for the time being, and perhaps for good. He is beginning studies at Brandeis University in Boston in the fall. “I’m going to go down the other road and see where it goes,” he said. Krush, who also won ... How to Make Chess Sizzle -- For years, chess players have bemoaned that chess is not as popular as poker, particularly when it comes to attracting television coverage. While part of the complaint doubtless has to do with the desire of some chess players to have their egos stroked, the real issue is money. Poker players earn more because they have higher exposure and name and face recognition. In the United States, more people would recognize the poker personality Phil Hellmuth than Viswanathan Anand, even though Anand is the world chess champion and has been one of the top three players in the world for almost 20 years. Not surprisingly, Hellmuth earns more money. The question of whether chess can ... The endgame: How does White promote a pawn? -- Is there a way to make a breakthrough from this position on the chess board? Over the last few weeks we've been looking at endgames and, in particular, pawn promotion. After a queen exchange there's little chance of a checkmating attack, so getting a pawn to the other side of the board has to be the ultimate aim in most endings. RB Somewhere in the recesses of my memory is a basic position similar to this one, though with three pawns rather than four facing each other, that allows the chess player with the move to create a passed pawn. So I'm going to try to drag up that position and try to use it as a starting point. Let's imagine there are no e-pawns. White would ...
