james, From what I can see in comparing your code to my code for the progress bar, you are missing some settings. May I suggest you download one of my skins, and open it in skin studio, and compare your code with mine. One big difference is that I use tga (pngs that SKS converts for me) for my images. Also, you don't have settings for stretching/tiling of your images in your code. When I was first learning how to do stuff, I would open other people's skins in SKS and see how they did whatever it was I was having trouble with...that always helped me a lot. Hope this helps.

Thanks Jazzy and Xiandi.

Jazzy, I downloaded the Spring Reflection and replaced sections in my blind with your code. I still had the problem. Then I noticed your blind did not have XP - Chunk Vertical set. I removed that section from mine and voila. It works now as expected.

Xiandi, I originally had TGA images and thought that was the problem. So I converted them to BMP images.
