hmm okay, the problem is still there. this is what i did:
I created a new skin and then applied all the parts to it, redid the font, and margins ect. but as soon as i applied the skin, the search icons are missing again in the startmenu search window. they are showing in the explorer window but.
Neil...why do you think this is happening?...this is a real little bugger...
when i apply other skins, the icons are there, this is so bizare, its almost like they dont want to work for this pc...
ps: my bottom bar is only 31 high, so i know thats not the reason..

experiment #2> just created a new skin, and checked to see if the search icon was present in the searchbar window in the startmenu. yes it was. I applied my new userpane and applied it. the search icon had dissapeared.....![]()
experiment #3 created a new skin, added a userpane from another skin and applied, the icon is there.........so it could be a
corruption from me somewhere............. bummers.....

i created a new skin this morning for an experiment, and the icon is there, so it must have been a glitch, but very weird!!
