However, I think I'm in the gnome-settings-daemon case. At least it doesnt work for me and I set my gtk theme via System->Prefs->Look and feel->appearance under Fedora/Gnome. So do you know another way to set a gtk theme, circumventing this gnome setting thing?

Its a great work around for things like OpenOffice which will force the ugly high-contrast icons into use on dark themes. This blog is incredibly useful by the way, keep it up!
