You mean you are actually blind? How are you reading this - have you
got some sort of text to speech device? You beat me anyway!
I once played bridge against a blind chap who has braille cards and
could remember all the cards that had been played - amazing!

Oh no my friend, you misunderstand, my expression. Sorry that my
english is not correct. The pieces dont pop-up at the boards, only
some squares with small red crosses!! I have tried at two diffirent
computers, same problem.

The red crosses are where pictures - in this case the pieces are going
to appear - eventually... When this has happened to me and they just
don't appear I've found that logging off and back on again usually
cures it. Anybody else got any tips?

Well, if you do have this problem [I dont - but on some sites I do] -
try pressing the 'ctrl' key [bottom left of keyboard] and 'f5'.
Press the ctrl key first - but keep it pressed - then 'f5'.

This will reload the page and all its images - and should solve your
problem. No need to logout anyway.

Thanks a lot for the advises. Finally I changed board style, and solved
the problem that way. Soooo now I can see, so take care :-))

You know, using the incorrect punctuation when making sarcastic posts about people's spelling kind of dulls the impact of them! 😛

No one should rely on a single board.

thats a very good point. people may just give up, and never come, leaving open ended games never finishing and drifting off into the vastness of time and space!!! does stuff never get deleted from this site? it has posts from 2001!!1

Kind of like astronaut Frank Poole in '2001: A Space Odyssey.'

So, are you saying HAL's to blame?
