    the problem you are saying is happens when you use a black background.

    think the name of icons are written in black color. when you apply the black background then black name of icons are mixed with the black color of the background. Thats why these are not showing. change the back ground picture.

    On Other hand you apply the picture as a background and after applying you go to the picture target folder and cut it and paste any other place in computer. then computer does not find the picture of background in the given path. thats why computer turns it black... means no picture on background"

    otherwise 20% virus effect. and 40% windows currept..

    Thanks....
