Icon Browser not working

Hi;

My icon browser for FC5, Gnome 2.14, leaves all my icons dimmed and
won't load them into a launcher unless they are for the selected window
theme.

More explicitly, when I click on an icon in the properties window of a
launcher, I get the thumbnail sheet (icon picker) for my window theme.
If I use the browse button, I can browse to /usr/share/pixmaps/whatever
but the individual icon graphic files are dimmed and can't be shown in
the thumbnail panel. I also have some extra icons downloaded and saved
in /usr/local/share/pixmaps that I want to use, but they are dimmed too.
Being in a different directory shouldn't make a difference. Is this a
bug or have I failed to download something or am I just being stupid
(that has happened before)?

By the way, in the icon picker, the dialogue window at the top contains
the location of my current icon(s), but when I drop it down it also
contains two additional directory addresses/Paths (URI's) -- for my old
FC4. Where on my home directory would these old URI's be lingering
about? If I can find them, can I just delete them? (Couldn't find the
paths using Beagle; Couldn't find them using 'find' in Gconf)

Regards Bill
