There's nothing gone wrong, as far as I'm aware the Emerald Manager settings only apply to windows. To change the desktop background, you could go through System>Preferences>Appearance, and you could alter some panel settings using Compiz or by right clicking on a panel and selecting Properties.

Thanx for the effort but i thought, by looking at some awesome screenshots here:

that the desktop background, panels and terminal's appearance will automatically change without any manual customizations. oh well.... thanx again.
