FIDE publishes the rating lists once a month, but people are always curious what the live ratings of top chess players are. A list of world's 2700+ grandmasters exists already. We would like to offer you regularly updated women's top chess rankings. A special banner will be added to the left panel of Pogonina.com so that you can always see how things are going for the women's elite.

I've seen other sites do live rating banners. Is there a direct source for such banners that can be used by anyone? I'd like to add the top ten men and women lists to chessvine.
As far as I know there is just one live rating for men (all the other websites simply link to it by placing a generic banner, don't think anyone will object). Now there is also a live rating for women by our website. If you decide to link to it, I won't object either

I figured as much, Peter. As you know I freely tag Natalia's site as well as several others ... haven't had any objections so far ... the webdev chess community is awesome.
В Париже играет Zhu Chen. Почему не показывают ее результат?

Почаще бы обновлять таблицу, претендующую на звание "Live" Ни в коей мере не притензия, просто пожелание.

Search "Bobby Fischer travelling from Japan to Iceland" on youtube
Bobby Fischer: "Chess has been a lousy game for about 200 years, why do you want to get into something that is mainly prearrangement?"
Banana : "Use chess to promote Fischer Random, burn your opening books, forget about ratings, enjoy chess and get a baby" or "bang your head against the wall forever"
You should be in the sun more 
its god for your skin. 
Your man would love you more. 
And I would like you more as a chess babe! 
You should have played on against Eric 
Every chessgame should feel like 
and all you have to do is to say this 
to the man (or pussy) that offers draw.
