How do people go about making chess games?

I noticed all the chess games have boards...I'm USCF rated around 1550 and I'd like to start a game, but I can't figure out at all how to pull up a board...

This board is equipped with chess tags. How to use them is detailed here.

There are also chess variant tags, for games like Grand Chess that use chess boards and pieces in different configurations. I believe we still have tags for Go and Hex, and sometime in the future should be getting tags for Shogi and its variants.
