Tested in the latest Archlinux OS using icewm-1.3.7-3, xfce4-session-4.10.1-2, openbox-3.5.2-4
No gnome apps, No gtk3.

If you like the start/menu icon and are using a different panel/taskbar than IceWm,
for example: Xfce4panel, Lxdepanel etc. I have placed it at ~/ColdSteel/gtk-2.0/Panel folder.

Right click on your start/menu icon >Select > properties and link to above location to change your icon.

New to themes? create a folder, in your home directory ~/.themes
for example mine is /home/justus/.themes
the dot before themes means it is hidden and linked to /usr/share/themes
Can not find it? go to your file menubar, click View, click Show Hidden
Now, download your chosen theme, right click the downloaded file,
chose extract here, grab the extracted file and drop in your .themes folder.
Then open up your favorite appearance manager and select the newly installed
theme.
There are other ways to install themes but this is the best way!
It allows you to control or change parts of the theme without
going to root and possibly doing some harm to your file system.

You may also consider creating a folder called ~/.icons
where you can place downloaded icon themes and mouse cursor themes

And another folder callled ~/.fonts
where you can place downloaded fonts

Right click on screenshots and open in new tab, to get a better view.

This was my first pixmap theme, time for some updates.

Added my chosen window enviroment Icewm

Almost a complete redo of the gtk2 theme;

New buttons

New scrollbar slider, new range slider and range trough

New scrollbar steppers

New arrows

Complete entry redo with focus accents and unfocused/inactive accents

New notebook and tabs

New Menu look

Redo of frozen bubble penguin, removed bubble, gave his feet some dimension and shadow.
If you don't like it crunch/comment the beginning lines like this starting at line 719.
#overlay_file = "Menu/menu-sticker.png"
#overlay_border = { 6, 6, 6, 6 }
#overlay_stretch = FALSE
of the gtkrc.

Changed bg color, selected bg color, selected fg color

Added complete button functions to default, gives better look with combo menu scroll selectors/buttons.

Added, widget_class "*XfceSystrayPlugin" style "panel" to panel.rc fixes system tray offset when not
using compositing.
