interesting does this mean that a voice over iphone user can move his pieces
when he plays a game and here the opponents move? I fear not though!

Also one good thing about chess.com is that one can just push
the pieces on a IPhone screen. The other opponent can move the
pieces no matter whereever they are. This is only for vision
players. But I get the assistance from a sighted volunteer. Its
also fun playing there.

All,
one good thing about chess.com is they do have excellent video
lessons in their expensive diamond membership option, after
badgering them most are now supported by pgn files which you can
then download to improve understanding of the videos, also some
of the forums are accessible but you need extremely good
knowledge of how to use your access software to extract setup
positions etc. I have not found online facilities such as game
playing, trainers or their puzzle stuff to be accessible at all.

you on it.

Janelle,
Please, keep us up to date on any progress with chess.com. I'd
love to
be a beta tester if you all desire it. Also, I'm trying to
find the
Lantern program/app where the ICC can be more accessible to me
as a
totally blind user.

I am a software developer that has an understanding of

they are open to the idea, ask them to put me in contact with
their lead
programmer. I can give tem a short tech talk on how to make
their website
accessible to screen readers. Good thing: it is not that hard.
Cheers.

Hello everyone,
I have connections at chess.com and wish that they were more
accessible
to you. I can try to talk to them but I would need your help to
do it.
Any thoughts on this?
