A new Chess.com on the way

Chess.com Spielen. Lernen. Teilen.
Hi Manfred!
If you've got an eye for design and a few graphics skills (and a love for chess), we've got the perfect contest for you!
As we wrote about last week, there's a new Chess.com on the way - and one of the things that makes it look so good is a new collection of visual Themes our members will be able to select, mix and match!
We have a lot of good ones already - see some samples here - but we know there are a lot of talented people here, so we're giving you the chance to design your own "dream theme"!
The winning Theme(s) will not only come to life in Chess.com v3, but we're awarding Diamond memberships to the winners as well... Everybody wins!
See our blog post for rules and other details! »
