Can you take a screenshot of this? Pressing PrtSc will take a full 
screenshot of the screen, so it will depict any visual oddities.
Filing a bug report (http://bugzilla.gnome.org/) would be a good idea.
That's under Classification: Desktop, Application: gnome-themes, 
Component: theme-smokeyblue.
Post the bug report URL here for reference.
