MAMEWorld Forums - MAME Artwork: Official - LAY File Basics - (and... create your own MAME Artwork files)

If you would like to know how artwork layout files work, you can read up at the MAMEDev Wiki.

Part II with more advanced features will come later as time allows.

If you still need help creating a LAY file for your own bezel artwork, cutebutwrong has written up a VERY intuitive LAY file generator, which can be now be found here:

This will create a .LAY file for a specified artwork and center it within the screen area, while leaving at least some space between the bezel and screen (assuming you choose an offset).
