So I have no idea what happened but I came back to my computer after being away for a little while and my finder was in the default theme. I re-applied my theme (exec) only to find that my finder was still aqua. Other themes yield the same result: every application but the Finder theming. Any help would be appreciated.

No error messages? A quick fix might be to trash all your ShapeShifter prefs and cache files and log-out/back in and try to reapply.

I've had the same issue here. But I got a message saying basically that the demo mode has expired... strange because I went through the whole automatic registration process upgrade when I installed the product.
But actually I had a small isssue with that, my first name is written Rapha�l and came back from Unsanity's servers as Rapha?
So this morning, when starting up the machine, I had that 'demo expired' message. I removed all ShapeShifter information from my ~/Library/Preferences folder but that didn't work, I still had my product not functional but fully registered (the Register button wasn't available).
I eventually solved my problem by:
. using the automatic serial number retrieval system on Unsanity's web site to get the new 2.0 information
. trashing the registration file that is located in /Library/Preferences (not in my user folder)
. restarting the machine
. re-entering the 2.0 registration information
In my case I placed back the files in ~/Library/Preferences so the automatic upgrade system got triggered, I just cancelled it to be able to enter manually the correct registration information.
Everything is back up and running now (with my first name not screwed up)... I just hope no new demo counter got triggered.

Well, gotta have at least one bug in every release...
If you've installed the new iTunes 4.7, you'll find that many of your apps have reverted to Aqua. Here's the fix:
[list=1][*]Launch Terminal. It's located in /Applications/Utilities[*]Enter the following command:
defaults delete com.unsanity.shapeshifter CustomSettings[/list=1]
Guess I've got something to do for 2.0.1 now.
Sorry for the inconvenience. I was scared when I heard that we were releasing on the same day as an Apple Music Event...
This can work at times too.
