SkyMerc's advice above sent me down a path that actually led to success!

My setup:

Tour 9630 on Verizon
Theme Builder 4.1.0.19 w/Tour theme patch

1) On the "Theme the Application Icons" screen, I first tried resetting just the Default Folder to default by right-clicking. After a long reboot, nothing.

2) On the BlackBerry itself, I went to Options > Theme > [my theme]. Hit the BlackBerry menu key and reset the theme to default. Nothing.

3) Back in the theme: Right-click on the "Theme the Application Icons Screen" tab itself, directly under "Inspector" hit "Reset Section to Default." Reload to Blackberry: Success! I *did* lose all my work on just this tab, but it was better than starting from scratch.

Step #2 above might not be necessary - I do need also to rearrange my icons as I had organized them on the 'berry itself, and any other deviations from the theme.

Edit: Well shewt. After creating a Web Link on this screen and adding an icon to *that*, the folders went blank again. This screen is touchy but it definitely controls the folders, even if inadvertently so.
