HG Muller,
yes certainly it would be nicer to be able to easily parse variants in
other ways, such as board shape, size, material type, piece density,
objectives etc.
My own games lack presentation, however I would say it is a general
problem. In an ideal world, one would be able to click on a game and not
only have images, but some form of interaction, perhaps even auto generated
games, though of course thats easy for me to say, as I have no part in the
building of the site...
As far as games with orthodox material being uninteresting, I would argue
that a game on a 16*16 board with added mechanics is a much bigger
departure from FIDE Chess than a slightly enlarged version with alternate
pieces, though perhaps thats a matter of taste...
Theres also ease of understanding to consider...
