This may sound silly but what about creating new board themes.

I like the SMILEYS, but what about basing some new ones on Star Wars or The Lord of the Rings or something.

there was already a thread to this. Nobody cares about another set where you cant tell the difference between a rook and a queen or knight. We need different color boards and pieces. You would never use a star wars set even if they made one. Think about it, you said you like the smiley set? How often do you use it?

I already asked for this, the conclusion was they want to stick to the queen’s gambit and not the princess Leah’s gambit. 🙁
