The image is nice, but it is again a chess board hard to play, all the 
pieces are the same. Also, is it four kings I see on the board ? (usualy 
kings have crosses and queens just have a crown)

Just beeing picky,   :-)

Well, this is very much WIP. The kings of this first version had two 
rings, but I've already made quite many modifications to make it easier
to identify the various pieces. This is a visual only design as the 
pieces would be rather difficult to manufacture for lack of a suitable
material -- the ior of the "glass" is much higher than that of diamond,
I varied the ior between 0.8 and 10 to find an aesthetically pleasing
value.
