Problem with "Programs" image on start menu

Hi all,

I'm using the excellent Opulence theme by Ross Harvey and it looks great but I'm having one small problem. The "Programs" image that you hover over to get your programs list open seems to be "squashed". I know nothing about making skins but I thought I'd edit it myself to see if I could solve the problem. I've played around with the margins settings and various other things but nothing seems to change it, I thought I'd post here and get some professional opinions before I accidently break the skin!



Heres a screenshot of the problem I'm talking about. If you look at the screenshot of the skin Link you'll what I mean.

Anybody any ideas on how to fix it?

Cheers,

Andy

Ross forgot to change the More Programs Background size.
Open the skin in SkinStudio and on the left tree menu go to Start Panel/More Programs Panel/Background
Now, from the right tree menu click on Size of the More Programs and change the setting to 176,41
To align the image to the border of the frame change the Content Margin settings to -94,0,0,0

If you edit the skins with Notepad, this is the way the coding should look.

[StartPanel.MorePrograms]
Image=Opulence\progs2.bmp
PartWidth=176
PartHeight=41
LeftWidth=0
RightWidth=0
TopHeight=0
BottomHeight=0
ContentLeft=-94
ContentRight=0
ContentTop=0
ContentBottom=0
Tile=0
TileTop=0
TileBottom=0
TileLeft=0
TileRight=0
NormalFont=3
TextFontOver=3
FrameCount=3

I hope that helps
