YES!!! Kasvarof's suggestion worked great!!! Held ctrl key while clicking the -,(minus), key,(the + key enlarges the screen). I have to remember this trick.
Thank you, Kasvarof!
HELP! Screen too LARGE!!
Sort:
Decreasing the browser view size is a workaround and does not fix the core problem. The latest update to chess.com does indeed make the board too big and there is no other way to make it smaller. The size it used to be before the update was much better.
I hope whichever developer decided to increase the board size gets fired because this is f'ng absurd..

You can change the board size. There is a resize icon at the upper-right of the board. Click-hold and drag left to make it smaller.
my board is way too big I cannot see all the pieces on the board and I cannot re-size the board?

Does not appear in the format you have posted, it fills all the screen
I cannot do that because the arrows don't appear on screen

I figured it out. Hold the <CTRL> key and roll the mouse wheel towards yourself. It shrinks the chess board at chess.com. Kingneon recommended this first.

Check your browser zoom
hold ctrl + use the mouse wheel to adjust zoom settings on a website in general.
its a workaround, jugaad.
dont have a mouse wheel? there is another method. involving holding of "ctrl".
you should be smart enough to figure it out i guess, its logical. m1 so to say

yes exactly. buy a new monitor if the program settings are messed up. and if the mouse cursor is too big one day, just buy a bigger monitor depending on how much too big the cursor is ))) 
you find answers from people giving tech advice who actually have no clue about the problem all the time online. such answers do more harm than good. please keep that in mind.
And, next time I logged on the pages were super large again. I'll try Kasvarof's suggestion.
