Instead, ALL tiles are blank.

metro-tiles-are-blank/ea67f517-a9c9-4455-9aff-3eb8453947f0 this is the original 
problem, then someone discovered that messing around with the default thumbnail 
system will result in the tiles' malfunctioning.

Just a heads-up for you guys to prepare for future release of Windows ;)

SageThumbs provide no tiles at all, it proved thumbnails.

The problem is that sagethumbs disrupts the Windows 8 "metro" interface, this 
happens in the release version.

Just install SageThumbs in windows 8 and all the "metro" icons go away. Just 
empty tiles.

This is a serious issue and now W8 has been properly released; it needs to be 
addressed as a matter of urgency. I use Metro apps and SageThumbs on a daily 
basis, but SageThumbs is more expendable. I won't be re-installing SageThumbs 
until this is fixed.
