You are getting quite adept at creating Interactive Diagrams!

Two suggestions that might be useful for making them even nicer:

* There is an anti-aliased PNG version of the /graphics.dir/small/ set, in /graphics.dir/utrechtPNG/. It is 50x50, but if you are using betzaNew.js as the Diagram script instead of betza.js, you can still specify squareSize=33 if you really want small pieces. This newer script includes size specifications in the HTML for the chess board that forces their size to the requested squareSize, rather than adapting it to the natural image size. And the 50x50 anti-alisased PNG displays quite nicely at 35x35 too, with a more pleasing result than using the old GIF files.

* If you include the parameter useMarkers=1, it will use symbols for highlighting the moves, rather than the background color. This looks better on brightly colored boards, especially when you have suppressed the borders between the squares with borders=0. (Perhaps I should make this the default...)
