Desktop Chess

A long time ago I wanted to have a game of solitaire chess going that whenever I have a down-time point I could look at it and take a turn. There are many online java based chess games, but I wanted it to just be there and not have to have it open all the time.
My bro and I had just watched THIS...

...and the point where the character does some choice art with his desktop icons gave me an idea...

I give you desktop chess...i bet someone somewhere has thought of this, but whatever.




Just extract all the icons to your desktop, set the chess board as your wallpaper, use the "turn.ico" to help you remember which side's turn it is and remember...have fun.
