You need a ~/.gtkrc-2.0 file for GTK+ v2 apps and a ~/.gtkrc file for GTK+
v1. Basically they are a copy of the gtkrc file found in that particular
theme's directory, with some stuff adapted for local use. So you need a
tool that produces and adapts these gtkrc files. The best is probably
the Control Panel (or whatever it's called in Gnome). There are 3rd party
tools, perhaps others can suggest their favorite. I also have a couple of
Bash scripts that can produce them for you, if you don't mind switching
GTK+ themes from the console and no preview. Contact me privately
(anybody) if you want them, this is not exactly a Blackbox issue anymore.
