Fernando,

Many thanks for the kind words. We at Fluent Entertainment worked very hard on
Majestic Chess, and it is nice to know that what we did was appreciated -- in
particular, the graphics. We wanted to make an attractive program that would be
fun to play against; that was our one and only goal.

Nice to know that we may have accomplished it! :-)
