so my question is, can someone tell me the most stupid simple dummy proof way to find the widgets for any particular app? and is changing the icons in applications very easy to do using gtk?
thanks for any help

I was in the same spot, I, too, wanted to customize some apps (Synaptic
BUT, there is in fact one tool that I found (by Michal Hruby) that seems to do the job, it didn't work for me but I'll share it with you anyway.
Get the code from launchpad: bzr branch lp:~mhr3/+junk/inspector
Watch the video: [link]
-loader.c
-compile.sh
-ui-inspector.vala
After that, make sure 'valac' is installed (sudo apt-get install valac)
Now, mark compile.sh as executable (chmod -x compile.sh) and run it (sh compile.sh)
Normally, LD_PRELOAD=./inspector.so [name_of_binary] should do the trick but I couldn't get it to work.
it looked like it was doing its thing then stopped with some weird error
Metacity is the most common one, it's fairly simple and comes default on most distros.
Emerald is a more advanced one, with transparency and animation support.
Then XFCE has its own (XFWM, IIRC), which is the simplest, I think.
