I just noticed that I can't get shadows of any sort in the 5 min timer. Anyone else have that problem?

I assume you are referring to the timers in the default list and not one that you made.

What build are you using?  There has been some recent work on the timers - shadows were not working but have recently been fixed.

I checked all three 5 minute timers in the recent beta and they are working as expected.

This is one of the 5-min timers (min & sec) supplied with SSP. I am using the 5/28 build of the April edition. I get an alert when trying to use the block shadow and/or blur, but no alert when using the drop shadow and no blur. No shadow shows for either my home work station or the church projection PC and doesn't show in the preview either.

Hmm,
I checked the shadows on 5/28 and was not getting the alerts as you described but we are aware of the issue with shadows on the timers.
 
I am surprised that you see any shadow at all as I observed no shadows on any of the timers when replicating the issue initially. 

The 08/04 Beta that is currently available fixes the shadow issue, however there are a couple of other issues still in work on the timers.

Our hope is that these will be fully operational in the next release.

I didn't mean to indicate that I got any shadows -- I don't, just alerts on some items. Anyhow, I glad it is being fixed as it is difficult to see plain text against some backgrounds and shadows often help. Thanks.
