Does appearence matters to you? Making Fluxbox look awesome.

I know it's a silly question but here we go..

How can I change the font of external apps in fluxbox ??

Here is what Fluxbox wiki say about:

"First of all an important fact to know is that fluxbox doesn't control the font of external apps such as firefox or k3b. Those fonts are controlled by their related toolkits (gtk, qt,...), fluxbox fonts are only for the toolbar, the windowtitle and the menu (rootmenu, windowmenu, toolabrmenu...)."

here's the link
http://fluxbox-wiki.org/index.php/Font_changing

I can't find a way to change the font type/size..particularly in firefox. Anyone ???

you mean the font of the firefox window (gtk-chtheme) or the rendering itself (edit-> preferences)
