Default Creating Homescreen

I have a few question...
What are the dimensions for the background image of the home screen? What programs do I need to create the XML thing? So far I tried to download the SDK for Windows CE 5.0 but it says I need other programs to make it run properly. Is the Visual C++ all I need or is there something else. I already saw a couple of links throughout different posts but I basically want to make dure I have all the right programs to get things started.

Another follow up question. I read all of the posts regarding creating a file and they really help. My question that I couldn't find on these posts was what is the screen format. For example what does x=0 vs x=4 do? And if I want to expand my Icon bar by 10 and I remove 10 from my MRU why does my screen now scroll?

Thanks in advance.
