I have not done any docs on this unfortunately

What you can do is to take a look at the krysalis-site and tigris-style skins that already use them, and take a look at the names of the corner images. You can experiment with them by simply calling the right filename in the browser.

They should be something like:

*c-*-*-*-1*-2*-3*.png

With the wildcards being:

  path to the xslt that creates the corner (in the common skin we have
                                            two ready)
  name+c
  orientation top or bottom (t or b)
  orientation left or right (l or r)
  size (pixels)
  background color name as in the skin color profile
  the stroke color name as in the skin color profile
  the foreground color name as in the skin color profile


The pipeline that generates them is resources.xmap.

NOTE: the pngs have a problem due to the gamma setting being interpreted differently in browsers. I minimized the difference, but maybe it's better if we use lossless jpeg instead in the future.
