I skipped through the layout and tried to keep only the three best in own browser tabs. In the end there were four:

The third best is http://www.open-aurec.com/chesswar/Antonio/CW/CW.html
May be I kept it because it was the first I have seen and I did not find
a good reason to throw it out. But I admit it is not very elegant.

The second best is http://www.open-aurec.com/chesswar/Antonio/CW2/CW2.html
though I am not sure if the red colour looks better than blue.

The best is a combination of
http://www.open-aurec.com/chesswar/Antonio/CW4/CW4.html
and
http://www.open-aurec.com/chesswar/Anto ... /CW6b.html
I don't like the news on the right.
I don't like the chessWAR title.
In the title of CW6b the top left logo picture has no CHESS-WAR text in red.
Perhaps that could be added in orange?
Could you please try it with these corrections?

May be at another day or hour I have other preferences.

I like the first one on the list.
Aesthetically pleasing to the eye.
Contrast of text in relation to the colors of the background
is good.
Visibility is very good and size of text very good.

Best to you,

Gerold.

P.S. I like them all. 8-)

Definitely CW4! ( http://www.open-aurec.com/chesswar/Antonio/CW4/CW4.html )

If Antonio agrees, I'll use it for the CW2 project. :)

Picking the best one wasnt easy for me, so I gave up after looking at them for a while. However, I did find one that hurts my eye..Please dont pick the one below.

This one is Ok, I'd put this in my top 3 though. But the first two I listed is much better, Basic and simple.
