These are great.

Any chance you're using Resource Spy?

Nope, I've never used Resource Spy before.

I've been working on my theme and since asking my last question here everything has gone smoothly.

The past few days or so I've been having some major issues with the program though. if I have the theme applied that I've been creating in the 7SB or the program running itself, clicking on the start orb or working on the taskbar causes Explorer.exe to lock up. Explorer's memory usage hits around 500MB and the issue doesn't resolve itself with time. I am forced to end Explorer and restart it manually. This happens nearly every time I try to use the taskbar from this point forward.

Being it had just started happening I figured something else had happened to my computer in the interim, so I reinstalled Windows but with no luck.

I hope someone knows why this is happening. Thanks! 8)

Have you deleted any properties?

I'm pretty sure I haven't.

I also went back and checked a few images that I thought could be the problem and double checked their properties compared to the original Aero and they all seem to match up.

The only property that consistently appeared different (that I didn't change myself) between the two themes was the ATLASRECT:RECT property.

Edit:
I went back and found that under the Reflections section I had added a property and removed the main reflection image. If I try to import it again the program crashes.

Update:
Alright, I finally managed to get the image imported and now the issue is gone. Thanks for suggesting checking over my properties,  otherwise I may not have found the problematic image and property.

Thanks again!

I've been working on my first Visual Style and everything has been going smoothly so far aside from one problem. Anytime Aero Peek or a Thumbnail Preview is triggered the desktop locks up and it throws me the error message "Desktop Window Manager stopped working and was closed".

It then reverts to the Basic theme and I am forced to reapply a theme with Aero enabled and start over. I first noticed this happening sometime after I replaced all frame images and shadows, and disabled the reflections from the default frame.

I hope someone here can help! Thanks!
