When I change some numbers about the Display Picture Borders, in Skininfo.xml, it seems to mess up the display pictures in msn.

code:
                            <Metadata>
                                <Colorize>true</Colorize>
                                <UMLeft>9</UMLeft>
                                <UMTop>8</UMTop>
                                <UMRight>14</UMRight>
                                <UMBottom>15</UMBottom>
                            </Metadata>
What are these numbers representing? Are these numbers the distance in pixels from the edges of the .png, to the edges of the display picture itself?
I can't figure this myself atm, I only have skininfo and some style/definition files on my usb to tweak on another pc. hope someone can help me ;)

RTFM :P

  • Untouched Margin Metadata. If not specified, backgrounds will be displayed in mosaics. Four elements are available for this metadata: <UMLeft>, <UMTop>, <UMRight> and <UMBottom>. If at least one of these elements is set to something else than 0, the background will be stretched. The Untouched Margin parameters allow you to specify the size of the margin that must not be stretched. For example, if <UMLeft> is set to 3, the whole picture will be stretched  except for the first 3 pixels on the left side of the picture. This is particularly useful when you want to add borders in your background pictures.
