Cut down Linux + customisable X windows

[Scott Boyle]

Hi all,
  Very new to the list so I am sorry if this is a repeat topic (if it is
could you point me to an archive). I have been dreaming of a linux disto
that is bare bones (but not so much to make it difficult to use as I am new
to linux) one that doesnot come with all the bells and whistles and 30 apps
for the same functionality, I want an OS that I need to add the
applications for what I want to do. Also I would like to be able to have a
highly cusomisable X windos application so I can completely change the look
and feel to how I would like. I am hoping there is something out there for
me, if not I am willing to start a project to roll my own but I would
rather not reinvent the wheel if there is already a wheel that fits.
