I'd like to show everyone a nice win I recently had but am very confused on how to add annotations and even get the board to show my game, I would appreciate if someone could give a simple step by step explanation on how to get a chess diagram up, thanks.

okay on your played games (if you played it here) download it as a pgn file
open the pgn file in notepad and do a copy.
in the editing fields as like those blog postings,

hit the checkboard icon,

select game sequence or moves

then where it says use pgn file, copy the text from notepad in there.
you cannt upload it but copy from notepad works.


then your in a game editor, can setup board.. write about it.
But before you do that just go straight for insert. now its saved !!!
Go back to your blog post select the bigger size checkboard and again the small icon now edit it..  if you dont safe regulary note that after 20 minutes or so its erased while your editing it.. :(

i'm not sure why that is, even under firefox(on a stick) it still stops after 20 minutes IExplorer is even more hopeless here.
