Due to the recent steam-mania, and my boredom, I decided to make a custom login screen for SteamOS.

Please, give me advice and critisism, and I'll update.
You haven't really tried to apply the steamOS aesthetic to it, its really just white text on black background.
Judging from the steamOS site its using light blues and purples. [url]http://store.steampowered.com/livingroom/SteamOS/[/url]

That's true, but I prefer the simplicity. Matter of preference, I suppose. Obviously this is just a concept though.

I said it before and I'll say it again.

Something like this?
Too much roundness going on. The general steam layout has zero roundness

That is bloody nice
It's too simple IMO, it needs more detail.
Try looking at how the steam windows look, and the steam website.

I felt a complete redesign was in order.

Not really, you're saying these are all crap but fail to come up with something that isn't.
Can you come up with one?

That looks more like windows 8.

The gradient makes it too complex. It has to be simple, guys! :v:
Okay okay, I think I've got a good design.

I think it's going to take some inspiration from the big picture mode. (unless they restyle that)

do you not recognize that in the art world that that phrase is a massive joke. criticism doesn't require proof of skill, and anyone who thinks otherwise misses the point badly.
im not wasting my time making something to prove anyone wrong, it's unnecessary and that's a fools argument. go say that shit in the creative work or digital 3d threads and see how people react

yeah and yet it looks a billion times better than "just black and white text"

How about you give some constructive criticism instead of arguing in circles?

demanding that someone do better than someone else is not a valid point.

i did: dont use layer styles. its tacky and poor design
[QUOTE=DOG-GY;42309174]demanding that someone do better than someone else is not a valid point.[/QUOTE]
I wasn't demanding that you did better, I was making the point that you can't just go and say people make crap images without being able to give constructive criticism or examples.

It certainly didn't seem like it before.
Back to basics

Before, you didn't give any specifics; you just said they all looked bad. Anyways, let's stop thread derailing and arguing.

I always loved that animation, don't know why they dropped it.
Say what you will, but the important thing is I had fun making this.
I tried creating something completely a new - without using the source material from the current Steam OS image, but obviously trying to keep the same style.
Steam Logo is a bit wonky from my bad clipping skills.

edit: @J!NX God damn you and your tempting title...
That's actually really nice. It'd be awesome to have a concept like that, and users could choose which color they wanted.
