Anyone know a good place that you can add a chess game or something on? I am looking at freeperl.com, but it is kind of confusing.

Perl games absolutley suck. Dunno if php is any better, but I highly doubt they are. Best games are in flash and shockwave. There are some real good ones in java too... http://www.javapowered.com

For a free online java chess game, why not try ChessPartner?

See the demo at: http://www.lokasoft.nl/uk/jchess/chessgame.htm

And download the thing at: http://www.lokasoft.nl/uk/downloads/jchess.zip

oh, so all the ones that say download are to put on your site-? Sorry- I just thought they were to play on your own computer.

I don't really see any faults with the Lokasoft one. They've got color customization if you don't like the color.

I'm sure there aren't any 3D ones if you are looking for those. And if there are, it would take about ~10 years to download on a 56k modem, driving away many of your visitors without patience.

Because it's free advertising.

They also make money from selling their shareware Chess program, ChessPartner. This java thing is just an expirement or something. But it works well enough for me.
