I'm really thrilled by the new feature, but I thought I'd throw in a suggestion for future consideration.

Would it be possible to set up an interactive board similar to those now being used for PGNs for other purposes? For example, would it be possible to "create-your-own" play-through position, similar to having the ability to create individual FENs. I can specifically see value in this for posting puzzles and specific lines/variations of certain positions.

Please forgive me if this has already been suggested, but would it be possible to have a flip board option?

Also I still think it would be nice if one could freely move the pieces to analyise, much like the analyse board feature.

"Invert Board" already does that, or do you mean something else?

I agree on the second point.

The new look is great. The check (+) in the PGN is a smart idea, but could it be something other than the (+) on checkmate?

If that info is in the PGN, then you can see it by clicking on the 'headers' link.

I am trying to find a way of showing a chess-variant that is played on a 10 by 10 chess board that is totally unlike any other a chess-variant that is played on a 10 by 10 chess board.

Is there some way to make the chess board displayed a 10 by 10 chess board?

Is there also some way of specifying the starting positions of each piece for when that starting position is a totally non-standard one?
