H.G. the Diagram Designer is the tool provided by Chessvariants.com and is the preferred tool. The site discourages uploading images--I had originally uploaded a Zillions screenshot which has a proper Harvestman graphic, but the site maintainers strongly suggested I use the Diagram designer instead.

This policy is completely unknown to me. None of my articles that were published here use the Diagram Designer. If uploading images was discouraged, why would every article have a file upload interface? I haven't seen your Zillions picture, but if there was any criticism on it I am sure it was more because of the quality than because of the fact that it was uploaded. If you already discovered you can use 26 pieces in the Diagram Designer, there would have been plenty of opportunity to avoid the use of an orthodox piece with a very strong associated meaning like a Rook; almost anything would have been a better choice. In fact the Diagram Designer supports the complete Alfaerie PNG piece set in the 'automatic' set group, which contains far more than 26 pieces. The Diagram Editor with Scalable Graphics can also give you a HTML link that you can insert in your text to display an image without uploading one, and allows you to use the full Alfaerie SVG set, even in rotated versions.

Sorry, but everything you are saying here seems complete nonsense...
