I want to help someone on chess.com by going over their games and use the board with their actual game,adding comments to moves as they replay game.I want to be able to email or show it to them on chess.com

Thank you

So do you want students?  Or do you want to know how to annotate a game?  Or what are you trying to say here?

I just want to help a friend who asked for help in learning to get better.

I thought you may download the pgn file and start there but am not sure how to proceed from there.

acyberguy: you need to find a program which can load and edit pgn files, and let you add comments and variations. there are a lot of them. i use SCID because it's free. but there are lots of others. Fritz and shredder, commercial programs, and also Rybka+Aquarium will let you do this, and get the pgn correct, which is hard to do editing the pgn files on your own. chess.com let's you make nice games once you have a valid pgn file. but it's easy to screw up a pgn file, when writing it by hand, so it's better to use a program.

Or...

Download the pgn file and send a message through chess.com to your friend. No ordinary message though. In the messgae window, click the small chessboard on the toolbar. Everything else, is just reading instructions and typing your views.

Thank you. I just noticed a suggestion about clicking the icon right below "post your reply" Well it worked fine but it will only let me post it in this forum. I need to get the results to my friend. Maybe I will have to get a program.

You can send the annotated game through a private message to your friend on chess.com...

madstermind,

Fantastic...worked with ease.

Thanks much!
