Annotation and positioning referenced from the edges (like Scale POSITION Otption)

Ran into a problem with this Annotation stuff.  Trying to apply a PNG 
symbol as annotation.   Can't seem to get anything to display.  I'm past 
the error though, and my text layer displays just fine.  The last layer 
is the problem one.

Thanks.
