If it is the Tint feature you are intersted on here an example:

Colorset 50 TiledPixmap background/fvwm-flying.xpm, NoTint
Colorset 51 TiledPixmap background/fvwm-flying.xpm, Tint blue 20
Colorset 52 TiledPixmap background/fvwm-flying.xpm, Tint yellow 20
Colorset 53 TiledPixmap background/fvwm-flying.xpm, Tint black 30

DestroyModuleConfig FvwmBacker: *
*FvwmBacker: Command (Desk 0) Colorset 50
*FvwmBacker: Command (Desk 1) Colorset 51
*FvwmBacker: Command (Desk 2) Colorset 52
*FvwmBacker: Command (Desk 3) Colorset 53

So one xpm and 4 differents backgrounds for the 4 desks I use. 
Now an example where average/contrast come into play with tint:

# standard item
Colorset 17 fg contrast, bg average, \
        TiledPixmap background/stone.xpm, NoShape
# active item
Colorset 18 fg contrast, bg average, \
        TiledPixmap background/stone.xpm,  Tint red 30, NoShape
# iconified item
Colorset 19 fg contrast, bg average,  \
        TiledPixmap background/stone.xpm,  Tint white 30, NoShape
# pointed item
Colorset 20 fg contrast, bg average,  \
        TiledPixmap background/stone.xpm, NoShape
# modules special background
Colorset 12 fg black, bg rgb:80/A0/A0, \
        Transparent, NoShape 

*FvwmIconMan: *colorset         12
*FvwmIconMan: *iconcolorset     19
*FvwmIconMan: *plaincolorset    17
*FvwmIconMan: *selectcolorset   20
*FvwmIconMan: *focuscolorset    18
*FvwmIconMan: *focusandselectcolorset 20

So again one xpm and various colors. plain iconman buttons are
ok. But, at the present time, others does not have good fg,sh and hi
colours as stone.xpm gives a dark average bg colors and the corresponding
sh, hi and contrast colors are computed from this colors. For example
all contrast fg colorset are almost white which is not correct for colorset
19 which has grey bg in the average.

So it seems clear that average should be computed after tinting,
but this is not so simple to implement ... I will try to do something.

PS: the two xpm used come from fvwm-themes image/background/
