I'm not trying to sound rude (I've gone through some of the same questions 
you're going through about a month ago when I first started) but a lot of
these questions can be found by experimenting or logic...for instance, if
the upper left hand corner is (0,0) then the coordinates entered must be
the coordinates of the upper left corner of the character.  I believe that
(0,0) IS the upper left corner, but I stopped working on my program for about 
a week and I'm not positive on that...
