Sorry for the delayed reply. Google Groups flagged this as spam for some reason (that's one reason why we recommend stackoverflow).
Try unchecking the Scrollable flag as it will resize the skin to fit available size and allow you to resize it to any size you want. You can configure proxy settings for the simulator which should also apply to the "More..." menu item for the skins. Best Regards, Shai.
