never used themes config to deal with themes. Usually just d/l them from various sources and untar them and add them to /usr/share/fluxbox/styles and /usr/share/fluxbox/backgrounds. are you looking for styles..for example emerge commonbox-styles commonbox-styles/extras? I don't use a lot of themes because I found one that has the fonts i like, the transparency behavior I like, etc. etc. I then just modify that to whatever I want with text editor. I have found setting backgrounds can be a pain...but using eterm to set the backgrounds works rather well. If you open your particluar theme style in an editor you will find something like rootCommand: fbsetbg -f /path/to/jpg.jpg you can edit that to the source of your pic you want to use as a background. Below is what I am talking about as far as editting your theme style...not sure if that is the info you were looking for or not. Good Luck!

For fluxbox themes:
| Code: |
emerge fluxbox-styles-fluxmod
emerge commonbox-styles
emerge commonbox-styles-extra
|
These themes will appear in the menu. |
