Took me forever to notice since you can’t see much of it behind the shotgun shell rook. Couldn’t un-see it after that, and had to change my background to preserve my sanity.

So the king & queen would be the first and second tallest, then the bishops being third tallest, the Knight fourth, and the rook fifth (and hopefully shaped in some kind of tower shape). When playing with non-representative pieces it is a lot easier to rely on the height of the piece to tell them what they are.

Answer to question: the dark king and queen should be switched in the photo above. The queen should always be placed on the square that matches her side (black on black square, white on white square)
