I've noticed a pretty weird issue. I am using some custom templates for the insert code, mostly because I'm using bbcode on my site. I found that my custom, theme-supplied template files were only getting used sporadically, and I narrowed it down to my use of an admin theme (Rubik).

Here's the scenario:

- When a node edit page loads with previously uploaded images, and thus, has Insert buttons rendered during the actual page load, the admin theme is used.
- When a new item is uploaded, the site's theme is used.

I believe the discrepancy here lies in the fact that the new uploads occur in an ajax session, which probably makes a call to the site which is bootstrapped outside of the admin area, and thus, believes the theme in use is the main site theme.

I'm really not sure what a good solution would look like. A select to choose a specific theme to provide the override files, perhaps? That doesn't seem very elegant though.

Are you using the Admin module to force the Rubik theme to load? This could be an oddity in that module more than a problem with Insert. Potentially this may need to moved to FileField, since it should be the one setting the admin theme in its own AJAX callback, not Insert.

This probably won't be fixed, at least not in Insert (which doesn't provide the AJAX callback anyway).
