i don't use the skinner.
that being said, each skin (with its 640x480 main.jpg and launch.jpg), in its own folder, each in the C:SKIN folder, has its own skin.ini. that's where you config everything.
i won't go over too much, as i'm sure it's been done again and again. i'll give an example. my "DOA Kasumi" skin.ini:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SkinName "DOA Kasumi","DOA Kasumi" #your skin's name. this goes everywhere you see DOA Kasumi
[Skin_DOA Kasumi]
Text = 30,37,0.5,0x000000,0,"<Time>" #XY coordinates on screen
Text = 28,39,0.5,0x808080,0,"<Time>"
Text = 620,420,0.5,0x000000,1,"<CD>"
Text = 618,422,0.5,0x808080,1,"<CD>"
Text = 30,420,0.5,0x000000,0,"RD Name : <RDName>"
Text = 28,422,0.5,0x808080,0,"RD Name : <RDName>"
LogoType= 4
Main = "[backslash]skin[backslash]DOA Kasumi[backslash]main.jpg"
Launch = "[backslash]skin[backslash]DOA Kasumi[backslash]launch.jpg"
BarColor1 = 0x946DA4 #hexadecimal for colors. i just use the wand in photoshop to get these
BarColor2 = 0x626DBC #only necessary for the bar's outside border
BarAlpha = 0.7 #transparency. from 0.0 to 0.9(?)
MenuColor1 = 0xE4D8E6
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
i guess the XY coordinates were what you were looking for. just try your skin with that setup and tweak out the exact numbers you were looking for.
