[QUOTE=FuzzyPoop;20392313]It's not chrome, it's a custom-made webkit browser. still awesome btw[/QUOTE]It's webkit yes, but Chrome runs off webkit.
i just downloaded the beta and it crashed -_- 600th post
Beta. Opt out and complain on their forums for input if you don't like it.
It's called "beta" for a reason.
make a thread about it i love it personally. the things you pointed out are so tiny i couldn't even care less.
text is too aliased and the gradients need fixing
[QUOTE=MiniManz;20392330]It's webkit yes, but Chrome runs off webkit.[/QUOTE] A lot of other browsers runs off webkit
Fucking. Shit. I opt in to this shit, download it, hate it, opt out, and now when I reboot steam it tries to update, then says it can't connect to steam network servers. I hate you VALVe. [editline]p;srih[/editline] I'm already copying my steamapps folder incase I have to reinstall this shit.
You are nitpicking over a beta you don't get much more ignorant than that.
Then don't use it, FUCK

[QUOTE=TheMetalMan;20391797][img]http://i45.tinypic.com/107kg47.jpg[/img] [/QUOTE] Other than the people crashing (it's a fucking beta, cry about it) this screenshot is perfectly fine. The space at the top, if you were to shrink the window down, the 'start voice chat' and 'invite to chat' menus would slide right underneath the name of the group chat you're in. The darker as it goes down color is called a [b]gradient[/b]. It's more visually appealing, as is the task bar icon.

I quite like it, but it's damn laggy. It needs more colour and contrast between text and background. For some reason, all of the text is ugly as fuck.

[QUOTE=Benji;20392476]The darker as it goes down color is called a [b]gradient[/b]. It's more visually appealing, as is the task bar icon.[/QUOTE] I find it distracting when it's IN the area where text is shown. I would have no problem if your gradient was on the outside, otherwise it hurts my eyes and it's distracting when I'm trying to read the text.

I think everything looks faded. I prefer a darker steam skin.
[QUOTE=Benji;20392533]Submit feedback[/QUOTE] I did, I was seeing what Facepunchers thought about it. [QUOTE=Eli Vance;20392539]Then stop using the [b]BETA[/b] and stop bitching and whining about it?[/QUOTE] I did, read the fucking OP next time.
It's slow and crashes often, hence why I'm using the original.
Running patched shell version of windows 7 x64(for themes), when not in game chat windows appear solid black, yet still function blindly. It's annoying, but hopefully it'll get fixed.
Just the new browser makes up for any dislikes in visuals.
after opting out of this shit apparently i have to download modern warfare 2 again fuck you valve
Hmmm, I put Steam into dev mode, and found a link to this: [url]https://intranet.valvesoftware.com/wiki/index.php/VGUI_Editing[/url] They changed the location of their internal wiki. :(
[QUOTE=Hendo;20392632]after opting out of this shit apparently i have to download modern warfare 2 again fuck you valve[/QUOTE] It did the same thing to me and then the download was missing a file. :downs:
[QUOTE=Eli Vance;20392539]Then stop using the [b]BETA[/b] and stop bitching and whining about it?[/QUOTE] I find it scary that all those gradients are in the beta :ohdear:. Yay gigantic waste of screen space!
I'm not broken. :confused:
The beta is great besides the odd spaces in the friends list/group names. And the new overlay is pretty glitchy.
