Your progress bar width should be a multiple of 22. The Brok3nprogress.bmp should be 22x9 pixels (the same as the Windows default). If you do this, then you can use the preview function in the Bootskin program to move the progress bar to anywhere you want on the boot screen. The trick is open up your bootskin in one window, and edit the bootskin.ini file in notepad. As you change the X and Y coordinates in notepad, just remember to do a save each time, and you can just keep hitting preview until you get it right.

The other possibility for it not showing up at all, is that Brok3nprogress.bmp doesn't use the exact same color palette as Brok3n.bmp. Load your main bootskin image and save the color palette with whatever graphic program you use. Then open the Brok3nprogress.bmp and apply that color palette to Brok3nprogress.bmp
