I was testing a some new theme elements and simply replaced the startbak.png and startbak_foreground.png files of an existing theme and the error as noted in the log occured and GameEx closed. Not sure why this is happening as I have performed these substitutions many times in the past without any problems.

A couple thoughts I had:

Are all these the same resolution? I think there might be a problem with layout vs the theme.ini.

The other thing I was thinking is that GameEx may be looking to add elements that aren't specified in the new layout, or the bg cache may need to be cleared.

You could try using a copy of the theme folder with a modified ini and see if that works?

You know when Drac hits a wall it's probably a really big wall! :)

LOL! It's OK Ian, it's what I do. Not sure *why* it was behaving that way, but I was able to work around it by using a different "seed" theme for my new theme. Sometimes it just happens. We can mark this one as resolved!
