OK, I have seen them. And indeed, when you start from a scaled-up image, 
which thus has thick grid lines, you could not use to cut out squares 
for small board sizes. I pointed that out several times before already, 
so this is not really unexpected. The problem seems to be that you want 
one and the same texture bitmap to work over a very wide range of board 
sizes. Well, that could work, but only if the width of the grid lines is 
1 pixel. Which would make them look a bit thin at monster board sizes.

I just pushed a patch to hgm.nubati.net to do integer scaling up on 
demand of the PNG. Perhaps you can test it with the original XQ board 
bitmap. (I cannot, as my monitor resolution does not allow me to make 
the window larger than the bitmap.) Currently it still uses a fixed size 
limit to decide if it should treat it as a full-board bitmap or a single 
square.
