You don't really need the panels. Middle click on the desktop to see your menus.
Look in system and launch the gnome control center and see if you can create a new edge panel.
You can also delete all the /home/user/.gnome* directories, then log out and back in to X.

Did you try logging out of X and logging back in? I have heard that will do it.
Control-alt-backspace will log you out.
What did you do, use xkill on your panel?
