You didn't set an area on the image, and thus it will take up the full
size, cropped on not.  Sounds like you want:


        <buttontree name="gametreelist">
            <area>128,110,964,310</area>
            <numlists>3</numlists>
            <spacing>80</spacing>
            <buttonlist name="listtemplate" from="buttonlistRetro" >
            <statetype name="buttonitem">
            <state name="selected" from="active">
                    <imagetype name="selectbar">
                        <filename>rk-selectbar.png</filename>
                        <area>0,0,280,29</area>
                        <crop>0,0,280,29</crop>
                    </imagetype>
                <textarea name="buttontext">
                    <font>small_active</font>
                </textarea>
            </state>
         </statetype>
         </buttonlist>
        </buttontree>
