I'm having an issue with 3 icons in my toolbar that remain as defaults and look like this.

I'm running SS 2.0.1 and made an icontainer of OrbAGV icons with CB but the Info, New Folder and Find icons are not sticking. I've double-checked the icontainer and repaired permissions. I've read about the iDisk icon bug but is this particular issue a bug or is it a simple trashing of a cache or plist or what?

Thanks already to Gerrit who's offered some suggestions.

That Get Info-icon actually blended pretty well in there.

Okay, the issue was caused by a bug in ShapeShifter which has been resolved for an upcoming 2.0.2 release.

In the meantime, you can work around the issue if you're so inclined by doing the following:
- Launch ThemePark (http://geekspiff.com/software/themepark/)
- Create a new guiKit file (File -> New guiKit Package)
- Navigate to Icon Sets
- Press the Import button and choose your icontainer.
- Export to a guiKit file (File -> Export -> For ShapeShifter)

The resulting icon set can be used in the same way that you've been using the icontainer in ShapeShifter, and those three toolbar icons will work properly.

Those three were the only ones affected, by the way.

I've got one word for you that will solve all your ills: CANDYBAR find it at IconFactory.com this little app will solve your issue and do a lot more very cool stuff. Screm SS for icon replacement. Nothing comes close to CANDYBAR in my opinion.
