Here we go again!

I'm working on yet another element for my modified skin. I want to add a small area above where the character name is to place my resized induction bar.

However, I am still quite new to this. I am not familiar, at all, how to modify a .tga so that the game knows what I am attempting to do.

Below is a picture of the vitals with a box to highlight where I'd like the new slot to be.

(I have tried to simply move the image down some and the corresponding elements in the .xml, to little avail. The image did move down in the panel, but there is no visible border like I am aiming for.



Link to the .tga:

The relevant .xml code:
Code:
<!-- Player Frame Positioning -->
  <PanelFile ID="ID_UISkin_AvatarPanel">
    <Element ID="Toolbar_Quickslot_Extended_Scaler" X="283" Y="526" Width="460" Height="196">

    </Element>
  </Element>
  </Element>
</PanelFile>
*Also of note, and curiousity, the rank icon refuses to show itself. It is placed just above the character level, but won't appear.
