that would be the easiest way, yes. open it with notepad and edit it to work for the new background.

They are not a big deal, the just show the program how to stretch your design. If you want it to stretch normally, with the whole thing getting bigger with different sizes, then these should be zero. If you want it to only stretch the middle part, put these numbers as half the size of your design. Make sense?
