I think changing over to anti-aliased pieces is certainly a good idea and it is something that I have wanted to do for quite a while, but it is a large undertaking. The Alfaerie set is huge, but even getting the most common pieces would be worthwhile. It is unlikely we'd ever get them all converted. I know you have done a lot of work converting Alfaerie images to SVG already. I did some work converting the Abstract pieces but stopped, although I am happy to resume. I want to upgrade the graphics in ChessV as well.
I do not want to replace existing images - I think we make a /graphics.dir/alfaeriePGN/ and /graphics.dir/alfaeriePGN35/ and fill them with upgrade images as they become available. I don't want to replace the existing ones because, for my games at least, I would not want to mix-and-match. I would only switch over to anti-aliased graphics if they were available for all the pieces I was using.
