How can I get such a desktop style?

Hello,

yesterday I installed xorg and fluxbox the first time on my computer. Before I used arch linux only with console and because of that the style wasn't so important

But now I want a nice Desktop with fluxbox and I found a picture from a really nice one:

I downloaded the the theme, but my terminal emulator isn't transparent! Which terminal emulator is used on this machine and how can I get it transparent?
And which file manager ist that?

An other newbie question:

The font DejaVu Sans 9 is used on the desktop, which you can see on the picture! I configured xorg.conf to use freetype fonts but I don't know how I can change the font in fluxbox. At the moment my font size is to small. I want a larger size and a more eye candy font like "Dejavu Sans"

Thanks for you hints!

Greetings,

Flasher

FileManager looks like Thunar with tango icon set.
Don't know which terminal it is, maybe aterm...

The Fluxbox menu (which clearly seems to be a homebrew one) states that it might be Eterm .
