Quick way to see if the problem is in the .gnome2 directory: move it.
Rename it to something else and try logging in. This will revert
anything you've changed in this dir to their defaults and if it clears
the problem then you can put the contents back bit by bit to identify
what was actually causing the problem.

If that doesn't help try moving some of the other ~/.* things
elsewhere. A quick look gives .nautilus  .metacity  .gnome 
.gnome2_private .cups .gtkrc* .gconf and possibly more.

If I were to ask you to dance naked for me, would your answer be the
same as to this question?
