If I have an image that is 40px 20px, and in my cpCCSprite class I attach it to a shape like:
```
cpShape *shape = [game.spaceManager addRectAt:cpvzero mass:10 width:40 height:20 rotation:0];

	[super initWithShape:shape file:@"image.png"];
```
When I call
```
self.position
```
Where is that position relative to the shape, is it at (0,0) [Bottom left] or in the center of the shape?

Thanks

Look up the anchorPoint property on CCNode.

Thank you.

For future reference. This explains anchorPoint - http://www.qcmat.com/understanding-anchorpoint-in-cocos2d/

And self.position is the center, not (Bottom, left).
