Here is a recoloring of Michael's original board that I like much better. One trick I found helpful for reducing the tendency toward inducing optical illusions was to checker the board AND make the triangles the same color as the other color of square. I used black triangles in the Ivory Tower for better contrast. Another helpful trick was to combine the board with a marble background to give it texture. This helps the eyes to better distinguish each square. I converted it a JPG to display on the web.
