    The dark theme and light theme…
    [..]
    As it is standard in antiX, each style comes in three sizes: normal (small), Medium and Large.

    you will see all available fluxbox styles (from both style directories mentioned previously); the ones at the top will be from your home folder, and the ones after from the system folder.

    In addition to “displays home-pathed styles at the top”, an important detail to consider is that the fluxbox Styles submenu will display only a limited number of styles. The Submenu provides no “scrollbar” widget. Beyond expandinig to display a two-column layout, when too many styles are (pre)installed… the displayed list will be truncated to whatever fits in those 2 columns. Offhand, I cannot recall whether the limit is is governed by hardcoded max value or is variable, according to the machine’s current display resolution.

    So “(light + dark) * (small, medium, large)”
    will occupy 6 slots, will displace 6 other installed themes vying for limited display space.

    When 6 themes additional (any, not specific to the Xecure themes mentioned here) are to be preinstalled, someone should be considering which other 6 themes are candidates for culling. The culling can be performed during the build-iso process… but any culled styles from the debian -supplied package will be reinjected if that package is upgraded, or is uninstalled/reinstalled.
