lxappearance NOT!

I've figured out how to change the window border by using lxappearance, but how do you change the rest of the theme? I would like to make the buttons, scrollbars, e.g. other controls in the windows to look nicer.

Anyone know how to do this?

That's weird, I can shift through Widget themes under LXappearance -> Window ... it is Obconf that changes only the window border.

Oh,

I installed lxde using the -without-recommends. Did that exclude something I needed to change the styles properly?

After installing gtk2-engines, some of the themes will change properly, but some will not. For example clear-look works perfectly, but loma does not. I'm assuming the loma theme does not use gtk2-engines. Any idea what it uses?
