BMPanel and Icons for Openbox

A few questions,

How does one install themes for BMPanel?

Where can I find better icon sets for Openbox and how do I install them?  Are there any icon sets that look like Vista's, particularly the ones for folders that show thumbnail previews of what is inside?

Thanks,
zeug.

Re: BMPanel and Icons for Openbox

1. To install new BMPanel themes, install them to /usr/share/bmpanel/themes. To use them, start bmpanel with the theme you want: (ex. bmpanel transpy &)

2. Don't exactly know what you're asking here... Icons are icons, regardless of the WM used. There are vista inspired icon themes out (search the *-look.org websites), but none of them as far as I know will give you thumbnail previews of what's inside the folder, that's a vista thing.
