hello all I finally got a nice Compiz standalone desktop with tint2 and xfce4panel running but I was wondering how I can change the windows themes, like the colors and stuff.. it all looks very win98 ish and I'm REALLY tired of that look this bugs especially in pcmanfm or any configuration window.

use lxappearance, it's in the repos.
extract the themes in /home/your-user/.themes folder.
you can also extract icons and cursors in the .icons folder.
I assume you'll use a gtk theme, so run qtconfig and choose to use gtk+ in "gui style", so the qt applications match the gtk ones (only necessary if you use qt applications, like vlc or clementine, otherwise they'll look old regardless the gtk theme).

To add to repo's post, make sure that in your ~/.xinitrc you add
export GTK2_RC_FILES="$HOME/.gtkrc-2.0"if you are using Qt apps and want them to match the GTK theme. Otherwise it will not work.
