OK, for whoever had the same problem...after looking around for a while, I think I've found a couple of places I found the word public and tried to remove it....
finally, when I changed FileColumn::ClassMethods::DEFAULT_OPTIONS[:root_path] = File.join (RAILS_ROOT, "public", 'system') into FileColumn::ClassMethods::DEFAULT_OPTIONS[:root_path] = File.join (RAILS_ROOT, "", 'system') in /config/initializers/file_column_settings.rb the missing background images and cool look of LBL popped up on my screen. Whether this has broken anything else or not, I did not test yet, but wanted to share with anyone else who had the same problems. Use at your risk, as I am no expert in this, and don't even play one on TV.
