It depends on many things, for example on other buttons.
To force a specific button size (64x64 in this case) do:

  *BarButtons: ButtonGeometry 64x64+0+0

To disable the 3d look, do:

  *BarButtons: Frame 0

You may also control the free space between the button frame and its
contents using:

  *BarButtons: Padding 0

There are more options, all are described in the FvwmButtons man page.
