UI custom mods

Hi! New to the site. I am getting a feel for it. But I see that there is very little customization, is there any sort of rule against creating your own assets for pieces and boards etc? Especially if you stream?

Like, I would only create stuff that affects my end and just aesthetically. Is that frowned upon? Like if I created say a Nintendo themed board. Mario vs Zelda: Goombas  for white pawns and Koroks for black pawns, for example. And I streamed it, making it clear that this is something I made, not a feature of the site. is that a no no? I know it's legal but I want to know more about it.

This isn't an official answer, but I can't see why changing assets client-side would be an issue, if you're willing to put up with potential problems.

 

If you want to get a more official answer, you can ask support, but it may take a little time for them to get back to you.

Hi JambiShog

AFAIK, there ain't no rules or restrictions against customising your chess.com screen when you stream. I do it all the time.


See my Mario/Mickey Mouse hand grabber mouse icon? That's the click-and-drag effect shown as a cartoonish hand cursor icon file. That's among the many customisations I do for my screens.


Here's what my mouse cursor looks like when hovering over a chess piece.

Other mods visible in the screenshot are:

  • Graffiti pieces have a visible shadow/thicker black border than the stock vanilla Graffiti piece set
  • Chessboard is using my own blue gradient colours
  • Fonts have been changed
  • Nation flags are larger and more detailed
  • Clock numbers and fonts are customised
  • Connection status bars customised in color (green)

    All done using CSS and the Stylus Chrome extension.

I made a tutorial a few days ago showing people how they can get custom pieces + board.

Just go on YouTube and search: "How To Get Custom Pieces + Custom Board on Chess.com"

My video should pop up. Hope it helps!
