This does not seem to be a difficult problem. What kind of puzzles were you looking at? I believe there are several puzzles available on internet for download for free. Although I am not sure about this. However, there is another way. Most likely you are looking at tactical puzzles? Then you can download (for example) Thousands of AEGT /CHESSWAR /RWBC /WBEC games and take your puzzles from those. I am sure Heinz, Olivier, Leo won't mind that at all, and you will have a lot of hot tactical puzzles for free. Not only this, but these puzzles are essentially free of analysis problems!! And if you are willing to spare some computer time, run a lot of blitz games and then take your puzzles from those. Who needs human composed puzzles when you can get programs to compose them? :) Hope that helps Pallav
