Well -- I was able to figure out the buffwindow and shortduration buffwindow pretty quickly....so ignore that request. If anyone else is interested:

1. First make sure you know what resolution you are running in game (Options/Display/Video Mode) In my case it was 1280/1024.
2. In your custom UI xml files folder (e.g. Everquest/uifiles/myxlpix) find EQUI_Buffwindow.xml
3. Search for the section (at the end of the file) :
<Screen item = "BuffWindow">
<Text></Text>
<RelativePosition>false</RelativePosition>
<Location>
<X>496</X>
<Y>224</Y>
</Location>
<Size>
<CX>130</CX>
<CY>285</CY>

and make a note of the CX and CY numbers (the window size)...in my case 130 and 285
4. Close the file without changing anything!
5. Open up UI_character_server.ini in your main Everquest folder and search for [BuffWindow]
6. Within that section, look for a 2 lines that match the resolution you noted in step 1 that look like this:
[BuffWindow]
.....
Width1280x1024=130
Height1280x1024=285
.....

and make sure that the numbers after the = sign match the CX and CY numbers from step 3

You can repeat this for the shortduration buff window.
Hopefully this helps.
