I am not sure, what is the problem? If you use 2.5.x (that supports png
with alpha channel), it will just work as expected. Define any background
you want, see the FvwmButtons man page, and then your png will be applied
to this background (image, gradient or solid color). Try in FvwmConsole:

  *FvwmButtons-TransExample: (Icon /your/transparent.png, Title "OK")
  Module FvwmButtons FvwmButtons-TransExample

Or maybe you need to make FvwmButtons itself transparent? Then you may
use colorsets, see the COLORSETS section in the fvwm man page. In this
case you will also want:

  Style FvwmButtons ParentalRelativity

Mikhael.
