I haven't seen this in the wiki and not sure if its been asked in the forum. I use Gnome and when I run apps as root, the theme is the ugly basic theme.
How would I change themes for root?

One crude yet effective solution would be to log in as root and set things the way you want.

That's a good idea. I use SLiM instead of GDM though, which leaves me with the problem of figuring out how to enable root GUI for gnome+slim.

# echo "exec gnome-session" >> /root/.xinitrc; xinit -- :1
should work.

Logged in as root and changed it. Thanks.

symlink your ~/.themes, ~/.config and ~/.icons directory from root.
hmmm, maybe not config...
+1, I don't link .config, but I link my .gtkrc-2.0 and .fonts.conf files.
ln -sf /home/username/.{fonts,icons,themes,gtkrc-2.0,fonts.conf} /root
