Create a file called ~/.gtkrc-2.0 (just for yourself)
or /etc/gtk-2.0/gtkrc (for all users) and add the following line:
gtk-icon-theme-name="Industrial"
to use the Industrial icon theme, for example. Any GTK2 icon theme
installed into /usr/share/icons will do. A lot of GTK2 properties can be
set statically in this way. See
http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/gtk/GtkSettings.html
for details.
