You have to use a theme generator to add the background pictures there is simple one at Microsoft (google Microsoft theme generator v2)
You can't use the MS Theme generator, that is for QVGA version. Create your own .tsk file using 3rd party vendor tool, such the one shown at www.mcdeb.com
BTW, you can go there and download some nice VGA themes :approve:

The theme has extended Features for PB+ extender. If you still want to use the theme open it up under Microsoft Theme generator v2) Click through the options and save it under a new file.
Again, the SBP extended themes don't work well with WM5..I believe

Try a soft reset. There is an occasional issue with the dll files that wm5 has with WBA..
Hmm, I never had this issue w/WM5. Just make sure a couple of basic things when using WA.

1-On WM5, install WA on the device, not on your storage card
2-On WM2003, install on BIS seems to work well
3-Install WA themes on storage card and use setting to specify the path
4-Install your .tsk files on the root of storage card and avoid your main memory \My documents folder
5-WA start menu settings: uncheck: Cache prog on start up; Check: Don't cache backgroung images
6-I think I have better luck w/non cascading start menu...But this is just my opinion
