Long/short arrows seems a good option, if they don't look too similar. :)

jadarite [flags]: the right flag is the one you feel suits you better.
It never crossed my mind that one could be of a country and live in another - and as such, i read nationality rather than location. :)
Nationality makes a bit more sense inside my head, but that's a personal choice i guess. :)

[Western Representation]
About the promoted pieces and their representations...
It might become a tad harder for people to remember what it promoted from if the piece changes name.
For the less experienced players, that is.
Still, it's part of the game, i guess. To know the pieces and what they promote to/from.
If the objective is to have the original game represented fairly, i think one ought to use the "real names".
(Although that would, in all honesty, make the process of learning the game harder.)

I like to see the movement indicators on the pieces.
I hope that is something to be kept in the more "exquisite" games.
Though i'm curious how we'll manage to represent Tori Shogi's exquisite movements - namely the Eagle's back moves. =]

Ah, never mind me, then. :)
And blah, you're Japanese. If anyone knows it's you, i guess.

I still prefer the whole kanji though, as you have it now. ;-)

jadarite: Eep!
You can't break the kanji, then it'll be a different one! ;)
Those two katakana are the katakana for the sounds "ro" ( ロ ) and "e" ( エ ).
Any Japanese would go wild if he saw such changes. =P

It's like breaking a word in half: instead of "castle" you write "cast", and it's a different thing.

It looks great with the whole kanji.

( side note: 口 is also the kanji for "mouth" - kuchi ^_^)

jurek and jadarite: The difference in the quails is the kanji [japanese character] that shows up on the top of the piece.
右 = "migi" = right
左 = "hidari" = left

鶉 = uzura = quail

I suggest you use nihongoresources.com to search for the characters. :)
Very good work so far.

fencer: Taikyoku shogi? Heh, joking. ;)

«Click on a piece you want to promote the pawn to.»
That's what shows up, when you're promoting a piece.
Any piece, not just a pawn.

Simple, easy to fix bug that has been reported back on March - perhaps it was just overlooked.
