Profiles are sort of ninja magic, sometimes it works,
sometimes it doesn't and as the documentation says, it can be
the heaven for some people and the hell for others. BTW, did
you check the "Desktop Profile Management" in Samba HOWTO?

Here is an example of profiles that we used for
quite some time on our company:
[Profiles]
path = /srv/samba/profiles
browseable = yes
guest ok = yes
writeable = yes
read only = no
profile acls = yes
csc policy = disable
create mode = 0600
directory mode = 0700
I am used your settings.

Sounds related to the permissions.
Or not since admin users = newuser2, which lets the account work as
root. Is that normal behavior?

That can be a WinXP problem. If for some reason, your
user and/or workstation has any setup to act as a local profile,
then it wouldn't upload anything to the server.
Local policies can be modified to force only local
profiles, you can also change some settings on how your roaming
profile works.

'logon path' and 'logon home' are used by different
clients, sometimes (and specially for XP) you need the
'csc policy' option.
What bothers me the most is the fact that out of 5 newusers I have created, on
2 of them the roaming profiles has created properly but it won't for
the rest. With no special order.
Second. Is there a reason I can't delete Icons on the desktop on
windows xp. It tells me access denied.
Are there any manual tests i can do to check on the profile status?
Is there a domain users group that i maybe should create in samba or anywhere?
