I don't see the logic of adding all the different icon sizes to your image path. They all have the same names, so only the first size you mention is going to be found. > Some paths commented because they provide too big images.

No. You wouldn't want your icon resized each time it's displayed.

You've lost me. menudefs.hook looks to me like some kind of menu generator. You should try fvwm-menu-desktop if you haven't done so already. Use the size= parameter to control the icon sizes. -- Dan Espen
