My first thought would be to have a look in $HOME/.xsession-errors. That
is where any error output is sent. So have a look for entries just after
you logged in (since that is when it is populating the panel) and see if
there is a complaint about a missing .png file.

If your .xsession-errors file is as full of errors as my one is (some
GNOME applications leave warning and error messages all over the
carpet), you may wish to log out, delete that file and log in again so
that things are easier to find.

Cheers,
Malcolm
