@CharlesV made a nice xfwm theme named PiranhaII a while back. viewtopic.php?t=79560&hilit=piranhaII

I made a fluxbox version

Perhaps a candidate to be included as a new home grown style.

I could work with that. Those all came from a single download from tenr, so I don't believe it would ever be overwritten if we removed them.

I wouldn't shed any tears if we dropped all the tenr themes, but maybe other users are fond of one or two of them...

This is my Fluxbox . There are many others like it, but this one is mine. My Fluxbox is my best friend. It is my life.
I must master it as I must master my life. Without me, my Fluxbox is useless. Without my Fluxbox, I am useless.

A possible compromise: remove the intersection of Melber and Siamhie choices and provide a link (Users Manual? Tweak Help?) to download the other 200 or however many there are.

I would also like to see the list greatly reduced.
