I've been having problems with the Local Network Mode. I have rules set to allow all communication for Banksia. However on Windows 10 when I start a network game it has not been registering on the Remote machine. I have even went so far as to temporarily disable firewall, but still no success.

Note that I can see the status messages stating that *System has joined, but the new game window never appears on the remote machine. Everything used to work fine some versions ago.

Here is a new theme some may like.

These are the settings I used on Windows 10.

Well Gold can work when paired with the right board colors.

This looks better: https://i.ibb.co/8jK4XF3/2020-08-30-7-28-13.jpg

Perhaps, I should say "me too".

However, I have experience about that. A long time ago, I released a freeware chess Java Applet with highly customizable. One of the busy websites used that applet but supprised me much since it didn't use any themes I built carefully and showed in the demo nor somethings closed but a strong plain gold color instead. That made me doubt much about my art ability for a while
