Chess diagram creator/editor

Why not just use chess.com, setup the board and take a screenshot, then crop.
Or are you looking for more than just the board diagram?
Here is one I just made with chess.com and MSPaint.

Some online tools are pretty good, e.g.:
https://www.chessvideos.tv/chess-diagram-generator.php
http://www.apronus.com/chess/diagram/editor/
The second one has a lot more options, including the Linares style of pieces which would be my preference.
Lucas Chess is really good for this. Just hit Alt+I (the letter, not the number) on any board screen. Great program anyway.
Another vote for Lucas Chess
Thanks for all the ideas. I thought that chess.com had something, but don't know where to find it. Any help on that? Thanks!
Never mind -- found it under "Analysis." I'll look into the others, too!

I think you meant to write "whole" instead of "hole."

Yep, I absolutely agree. Diagtransfer is the best free chess diagram creator if you want to make diagrams that are suitable for publication.

So if I understand correctly it is not allowed to use them for commercial use for profit right?
DiagTransfer is a free program, but the True Type font of the PCFTDT Diagram chess pieces (DIAGTRNSFER.TTF) is not in the public domain.
You can use it for personal use or for an association (chess club etc.) to produce club magazines etc. (which can even be sold as long as it is not for profit), and you can use it, if you are a programmer, inside one of your programs if this program is distributed as freeware (not as shareware).
I'm looking for a free download of a chess diagram creator or editor. I've Googled (well, Yahoo'd) several sites, but they aren't working. The program downloads, but won't run, or other problems. (I admit the problem may be my computer, since I've downloaded a couple of these before on another computer with no problems.) I would like to have a program that I can make a .jpg of the diagrams to use on our scholastic chess Facebook page. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
