BoneyardBrew Member Posted January 18, 2013 Author Member Share Posted January 18, 2013 Great job keeping this up even after Valve breaks the skin almost every update! One day it would be great to see a tenfoot skin, that is of course if Valve supports skinning it. Thanks! It's a lot of work but has been a labor of love. That would definitely be an interesting project. We'd be looking at a full Metro remake if they supported it. Awesome update :) Thanks for your time. Jumping from 2.5.5 -> 2.7.1. I wish I still had time to play games >.< Thanks, and you're welcome! That's a decent jump. Hopefully you like the new changes!

Joshie Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 There's something really depressing about a skin that makes it so convincingly metro while at the same time touch scrolling is utterly impossible. :< Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1066270-metro-for-steam-368/page/10/#findComment-595552470 Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's something really depressing about a skin that makes it so convincingly metro while at the same time touch scrolling is utterly impossible. :< Scrollbars aren't very fun to work with in Steam. :/ They're no smaller than the defaults though, so if those work fine these should too (and vice versa).

You'd think, but scroll bars are pretty narrow (there's no design reason for them to be wide when swipe-to-scroll becomes a fundamental part of the UX), and miss them by one pixel and you've just selected a bunch of text. :| Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1066270-metro-for-steam-368/page/10/#findComment-595552612 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xerxes Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 This skin just keeps getting better and better! been my default Steam skin for ages now (both my PCs, Mac is default Steam since not supported). I recommend this to my friends as well! you should be hired by Valve and make this the default UI!

I heard Big Picture Mode has iffy support for scrolling as well. Maybe Valve will focus more on improving their services with touch devices in the future. This skin just keeps getting better and better! been my default Steam skin for ages now (both my PCs, Mac is default Steam since not supported).

Keep up the fantastic work (Y) Thank you, that means a lot. :) First skin I've ever bothered to put onto Steam. I think I'll keep it :) Nice work. (Y) Enjoy!
