About Omega chess, the design of Champion and Wizard should like this:
- Champion (Neo): A trophy notched a cross
- Wizard( Neo): Down to the neck of a wizard statue (Must show the top of the scepter)
- Champion and Wizard (Other): Champion is the mix of Wazir and Alibaba, while Wizard is a mix of Ferz and Camel
Also i told that 1-point Queen should be re-notated, so why don't you re-notated it soon? (Even "S" doesn't fit the word Dabbaba anyway)
Request for board editor
Sort:
You seem to assume that pieces do have universally agreed-upon names and images. But that is really only true for the orthodox Chess pieces (and even then some languages offer alternatives). Even the very common RN and BN compounds can be encountered under the names Chancellor, Marshall, Champion (for RN) and Archbishop, Cardinal, Palladin, Centaur (for BN).
The images in the BoardPainter tool are just that: images. What they represent should either be obvious (e.g. for the orthodox chess pieces, or a Lion or Camel), and when not, anything you might see in it is as good as anything else.
I am not involved in any way with the development of BoardPainter, but your requests seem a bit unreasonable to me. If you have such strong ideas of how you want the pieces to look, it would be proper if you made them yourself, and then sent them to the BoardPainter developers with the request to add these to the menu. They probably have other priorities than creating on-demand artwork for free...
@HGMuller , i meant the move of Champion and Wizard in Omega chess like this:
- Champion can moves like a Wazir or a Alibaba
- Wizard can moves like a Ferz or a Camel
Also I thought there are many other fairy chess editor, but i chose musketeerchess.net one as my "Default". Can you or anyone else mention me other editors then?
I don't see why it would be important for a board editor how pieces move. For generating diagrams with fairy pieces I normally use this editor.

Alright, I seemed myself to stop using that editor for now, but if you masters know any better editors that still provide fairy pieces or custom board, share it to me. That board editor has found in a different forum by me.
Talking about Omega chess, I really wish Chess.com (This) to add it. It's nice!
Also I EXTREMELY REALLY NEED 1Point-Queen to be re-notated. The notation D make me FURIOUS, I'm forcing you to RE-NOTATED IT AS QUICK AS POSSIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why the 1-point-Queen is still notated D...
I'm currently use this website to make custom variative boards Chess board painting tools (https://musketeerchess.net/p/tools/boardpainter), and i have some problems about it. I want you masters to answer me these thing:
- Optimize the Chess board Editor from musketeerchess.net
+ Add descriptions under "Current brush": "Pawn", "Camel", "Chancellor", "Fortress", etc...
+ Add independent pieces, rather than variated existing pieces, because some people like me don't like to use such of them: Add Dabbaba based from lower size of the Rook (Must be spacy); Add Zebra based on the one used in diagrams; etc...
+ Allows users to hover on pieces to know its name: What is the Pawn, the Rook, the Archibishop, the Camel, or the Captain?
- Add Omega chess with Champion (notated Greek Omega) and Wizard (notated S, when Dabbaba is re-notated D)
- Re-notated 1-point Queen as "q" or "1Q" (1Q is the first plural-character notation ever), and re-notate Dabbaba as D
