Weird CandyBar problem

Okay, running OS X 10.3.7 (soon to be 10.3.8, but that's beside the point) and using CandyBar 2.0.1 (my own legally purchased copy, no less!). I really like the new Litho System system replacement set that Iconfactory put out yesterday and went to apply it to my system. One weird problem though�every icon has been changed... except the default folder. I double checked the iContainer, and the icon is there, and CandyBar even shows it as being the default folder icon, but it definitely isn't changed in the Finder.

Any tips?

Yeaaaahh.... boy is my face red. Logged out and back in twice, but a reboot post-10.3.8 update fixed it right up. Thanks guys.

Now we just need to convince Mr. Piraino to make more icons in this style so we can start replacing proggie icons.

Prior to the system update, did you set your theme+icons to Default Aqua ?

that is my thang. turn off all bells and whistles before any system or application updates. Never a problem, but it is good to know that the log-out/reboot workflow works too. I keep imagining I am on borrowed time - too many toys running.

Nah, didn't bother to restore to Aqua pre-10.3.8 update. I don't run any other hacks like Shapeshifter or what have you, so I'm usually okay as far as that goes. No other problems so far, so I think I'm in the clear.
