When you select the custom board, it is very tiny at the beginning and only offers the newspaper style chess pieces as an option. There is also a separate small window called "Customize Board" that comes up along with the custom board. It has a + and - sign, various arrows, and buttons to change the board colors. There are no instructions for it, and there is apparently no way to close it. I guess its operations are supposed to be intuitive, but it wasn't easy for me to figure out!? To make a long & very frustrating story short, I eventually discovered that after clicking the + sign many many many times, the custom board began enlarging in size and I could make it as big as I wanted. After awhile additional chess pieces began to be offered as options. So it worked OK after all, but it was a frustrating experience because of the lack of instructions!? WP
