Oh OK. And one note: The pieces from the site http://h1.ripway.com/sanjaab/bitmaps/ do not appear at all, so in the page you provided for Ambiguous Chess statistics i can't see a board with pieces. I suggest you to put the pieces from the following site(do not click it as nothing will happen):
http://www.marochess.de/php/chesspieces/

And you can choose the desired piece to include in your code for the board position with the following way:
After http://www.marochess.de/php/chesspieces/
put CPn.gif
With:
C = W or B for white or black color piece
P = Q or K or R or B or N or P for Queen or King or Rook or Bishop or Knight or Pawn.
n = a number from 1 to 8 for each piece set that matches your size of the board. Of course if you use 1 for example for black rook then you will have to use n=1 for all other pieces too.....
n=1 is a good choice by the way.....

For example http://www.marochess.de/php/chesspieces/WQ1.gif produces the image of the white Queen from set 1.
