How do I change the settings for fluxbox? I mean like background colors, pointers, wallpaper, etc... I'm sure there is a config file somewhere to edit, but I dunno where it is.

Look in ~/.fluxbox
There you will find the "init" file, with lots of items that can be changed.
Also, in ~/styles/
There will be a named file there, if you are using your own style file.
I do, and named it Rapidweather (style).
See my screenshots for examples of what can be done with Fluxbox.
I run Fluxbox on my Knoppix remaster, but the general idea is the same for
DSL. Here is the code for the Rapidweather style:
Code Sample

! Title: Rapidweather style (Adapted from DSL Perfect Blue)
! A theme for the fluxbox window manager.
! For Rapidweather Remaster of Knoppix Linux, Beta 66.
!
! This style uses xft/fontconfig font names.

Go to the mydsl GUI and download the whitebox.dsl extension.

It is kinda like a "Control Panel" for the fluxbox settings.
