theming for xfce(4.4) ?

(this time i will try it in the right forum ;D )

i didn't know that the GUIs like xfce use different gtk+ engines to render ,
how about the theme-compability from engine to engine ?

i want to create a theme for xcfe including one for xfwm4 and gtk+  ,
but so far i didn't find any reasonable howto for gtk-theming  and at the moment even all ressources (including gtk+ themes)  of xfce-look.org seem
to be wrongly linked to kde-apps :? , so i can't even see how you bind new pictures to the panel/widgets .

i also wonder if there is any possibility for installing a soundtheme in xfce4.4 .

greetings

Re: theming for xfce(4.4) ?

1)the compability seems not too good , i tried several gtk+2 themes (on xfce-look.org) for xfce4.4 but they all look wierd and unfinished with other gtk-engines used.
(at least some styles work fine) .

2) finally the xorg-look.org homepage linking is working again

3) unfortunately there seems no way to implement it so far.
