Yes fvwm.themes.org is again offline due to the illegal activities of
certain hackers. A totally new and revamped themes.org server is under
construction and should be online within a few weeks. I have already
responded to this thread, but for those who missed my earlier response,
users can submit their configurations and screenshots for inclusion when
the new fvwm.themes.org becomes operational again. In the meantime Dan
Espen is posting various parts of configs such as window decorations,
menus etc.... for examples of individual elements of fvwm2rc creation.
Of course the fvwm-themes project at
http://fvwm-themes.sourceforge.net
allows an extremely flexible and a huge variety of configuration choices
without knowing a single fvwm configuration command. Creating new and
additional components is also easily achievable with the documentation
and directions included.
