When you /loadskin it annoyingly takes the default positions stored in the XML instead of preserving the positions you have chosen yourself and are stored in your INI.

The formula used for those numbers is also staggeringly complex/convoluted. It's explained somewhere on this board... Has something to do with the first 320 equals up to the first half of the screen (scaled to a 640x480) but for some reason past the halfway point, it then goes to a one greater is one pixel further system. I.E. Although 320 X coordinate is 512 pixels across a 1024x768, 370 X is 562 across. Weird-o, and also makes it about impossible to hard code good positions in the XML.
