🎨 Full Theme Customizations (Pieces & Board)

  • Theme Settings Rename: Renamed the settings option from "BOARD THEME" to "THEME" in the Options menu.

  • Theme-Aware Pieces: Chess pieces now dynamically adapt to the active theme!

  • Classic: Pieces keep their traditional cream and dark grey colors.

  • Valentine: Pieces are styled in romantic palettes: White pieces use soft pink mains with deep magenta outlines, and Black pieces use dark plum/purple mains with hot pink outlines. Dragged pieces retain these custom colors.
