Lastly, Is there a way to change the menubar menus and icons for my
applications themselves to more resemble Window Maker/NeXTSTEP? Apps like
FireFox, etc., are still showing "GNOME" icons and menubars, but everything
else looks like Window Maker/NeXTSTEP. I'd like to be able to hide the GNOME
like menubars and replace them with Window Maker/NeXTSTEP-looking menubars
in applications and make the icons look more like Window Maker/NeXTSTEP as
well.

For GTK+ applications like Firefox you could use the GTK2-Step theme.
You'll have to do some searching to find it, since it doesn't seem to be
on the art.gnome.org site anymore. But if you do find it and install it
under /usr/share/themes/GTK2-Step, put this in your ~/.gtkrc-2.0 file:

include "/usr/share/themes/GTK2-Step/gtk-2.0/gtkrc"

Though not a perfect imitation, it does give GTK+ programs a fairly
decent NeXTSTEPish look. I'd recommend installing GNUstep if you really
want that look. It was fairly easy to build from source on Fedora 17,
but it may be a little tougher for you on CentOS because of the older
versions of gcc and some other dependencies. The look will only apply
to GNUstep apps, of course, and there aren't that many, unfortunately.

To give you an idea, here's a screenshot of my Window Maker setup in
Fedora 17 with several GNUstep applications running:

The GNUstep apps are: Terminal, Affiche (post-it notes), MPDCon (music),
GWorkspace (file manager), Charmap, Emacs (notice the detached menu).
And for Firefox I even got the NeXTSTEPish scrollbar on the left, as it
should be. :)
