Ahhhh, I got it
I re-read Xeno's post on creating graphics, immediately finding the part about correctly sizing your .tga files....mine was 250, 39. =P Now it's 256, 64, retweaked the .xml for the new size and position locs, and Im gots working bar!
Thanks to everyone that has posted here, I've learned all I know about this stuff in the last 2 weeks on this board and from fooling around with psp and sidl widl. There's alot of great info on these boards, keep it up!
