How theming system tray?

Hello first I 'm happy of my LXDE desktop because of theming all of its components.I already installed Acid Gtk theme and Ubo Icon theme since longer (today I customize LXDM with Machinarium game's wallpaper).All is very fun but I want replace system 's tray icon for Sylpheed and Opéra.I customize since more 1 year and I did'nt find solution to solve my problem in LXDE wikis (LXDE,archlinux,gentoo,crunchbang...)
When I installed my Ubo icon theme icons of system tray are normally themselves changed (network connektion, Transmission, Clippit, Gxine etc..).But some icons are the same.
I 'm looking for also documentation and solutions.But I dont 't know where the icon's of system tray are stored.I seek for in :
/usr/share/pixmaps
/usr/share/applications
/usr/local/share/applications
and many folders in /home/biscotte and others folders as programs ' folder and I look in desktop files of these programs but nothing.
What I don't understand is the fact that my icon theme is correctly installed itself so I think perhaps I could create a link which point to my icon.How can I do this?Wich file must I modify?
Do you know where system tray icon is working with a theme?
If you have info to understand and may be resolve my problem it will be very nice.
Sorry for my bad english.

hello, this thread is getting old, i wonder why no-one has answered???

have you found a solution yet?

anyhow, your icon themes are in /usr/share/icons or ~/.icons.

have you tried if other icon themes have icons for sylpheed and opera?

btw, i like your choice of style ;-)
(i once made a mod of acid gtk)
