You can try jef's suggestion, or try your hand at editing the config files
manually.  Of course, having a few themes around to study is a good idea,
as I've not found any good documentation on doing it manually.  Again,
that's one of the reasons I prefer KDE, as it has a nice applet that
allows one to point and click to choose a color for the various interface
elements individually.  GTK/Gnome doesn't, and I've yet to find a theme I
like 100% as is.  I have been, however, able to edit by trial and error
something decently close, until I got what I wanted.  What a bunch of
hoops to force a user to go thru!
