BTW, there's a relatively simple way to figure out all the coordinates in Photoshop.
  1. Create a mockup of the scoreboard using a document of the correct dimensions, and then draw rectangles for the various elements. The colors don't really matter but make sure they're pretty different where they meet. This is my mockup:


  2. Use the magic wand tool to select whichever rectangle you want the coordinates for. This is why you'll want the colors to be different.


  3. Enter "Free Transform" mode - in Windows it's CTRL-T. You'll notice that the selection box will now have handles for transforming the selection.


  4. Click the top left box in the little matrix thing in the toolbar. That will give you your min_x and min_y coordinates.


  5. Click the bottom right box in the matrix, and that will give you your max_x and max_y coordinates.

Just plug those coordinates into the .sl file where applicable and Bob, as they say, is your uncle.
