One feature I really enjoy is the animation, or instant reply feature. You know, you play a game of chess over the web, then you click on a board diagram, and with the touch of your mouse, you can sit back and watch the entire game in an animated replay, kind of like a good ol' football game. I think this is really cool, and quite useful, as well as enjoyable.

Now my question is this: Is there a software program that I can purchase that will allow you to input the moves of any games (for ex., your games at the local chess club), and replay them in animation like the feature on this site?

Even better yet, is there a web site anywhere on the net that will allow you to do this?

Maybe something like the Chess Saver program is what you have in mind?
