This probably will end up a holy war but I was in the same situation
not too long ago.  I went from olvwm to fvwm2-95 so it would look like
95 when my wife accidently brought up linux instead of 95. I've also
ran generic fvwm, fvwm2 and afterstep.  I very recently (yesterday)
tried "Enlightenment" which is still very new.  The flexability and
configurability is amazing.  Plus if you don't like the look you
can change "themes" extremely easily.  It is also extremely easy
to design your own themes.  Check it out at http://www.rasterman.com
and there are some more good themes at
http://home.earthlink.net/~audiocat .
