Ok I think I have finally found the issue with the icon theme.
I'll push an update later.

Should we include a GTK theme manager (like LXappearance which needs
very few dependencies)?
This would make it easier for the user to switch widget themes.
I would like to make something to (eventually) get the icon theme and
include it in the JWMRC file.
I might make a separate include file that is generated dynamically. 
Though I am not entirely sure how to fully accomplish this feat.  I have
been thinking about it for quite a while.... but I am still not fully
sure how to fully do this accurately.

[ if "i can fully figure out how to parse the theme file, or directory
structures (if no file exists)" ]
then
  This would make changing the gtk icon theme effectively change the JWM
icons
:)
