PixelVision no more. Most popular Steam skin has its final version released. - Polidicks

[QUOTE=KorJax;46848145]Uh maybe because it isn't designed to be used with a mouse?[/QUOTE] There is a difference between not being designed for a mouse, and effectively not being able to use the mouse to exit after it annoyingly opened without me wanting to(like turning off my DS4).

[QUOTE=Korova;46848843]That looks nice but I don't like the colors. Too vibrant for my tastes. Reminds me of Android Lollipop[/QUOTE] It comes with like 8 different color options.

don't know what PixelVision is, I use the superior Metro UI skin for Steam [url]http://steamcommunity.com/groups/metroforsteam[/url] [url]http://boneyardbrew.deviantart.com/art/Metro-for-Steam-3-8-4-292419787[/url]

[QUOTE=WaffleCopter;46845203]I had used pixel vision for a long time as my first skin, but then I found [B]Steam Compact[/B] skin which imo is better[/QUOTE] Thank you so much for unintentionally finding me a good skin.

[QUOTE=BlackRaven117;46846988][thumb]http://i.imgur.com/OsRI63U.png[/thumb] Big fan of modern Air for Steam, myself.[/QUOTE] I've been messing around with it and it's very customizable. According to the dev's patreon, he's going to make a standalone application for users to change colors around without fucking with ini files. Join the Steam group if you're interested.

I completely forgot Steam had skins. I stopped using them when they did the major facelift a few years back. I just installed Metro and tweaked it a bit and like it

[QUOTE=redsoxrock;46858988]I they let us disable BP fully I would switch to my DS4 as my full time controller rather than as a backup to my wired360.[/QUOTE] Just use somethng like [url]http://dsdcs.com/portfolio/software-development/4-ds4windows[/url] It emulates an X360 control using a PS4 controler and works over bluetooth

I just installed this skin for the first time Holy FUCK this is awesome!

It is suprising how many don't know that you can skin steam. Do we have a steamskin thread in the Steam section? If not then maybe it is time.

[QUOTE=ClarkWasHere;46845832]Do you have a link to this specific Classic skin? I keep finding this other version that looks like a hybrid between classic and new.[/QUOTE] I'm almost certain he's using [url=http://dblake1.deviantart.com/art/Old-Flat-Green-Steam-0-4-4-UPDATED-8-July-2013-394887449]this one[/url]. It seems to have everything but the old sounds, which I think is because sound mods don't work anymore, and the old store UI.

[QUOTE=redsoxrock;46862234] as in the button that turns on big picture.[/QUOTE] Almost forgot that BP can be triggered like that on controllers. It's the fucking worst

[QUOTE=Most wanteD;46845348]wow, i honestly didn't even know steam had skins. is there a retro one? that would be cool to see.[/QUOTE] if you mean retro as in the classic steam, there's an OFGSRemake skin (old fat green steam)

RIP sweet prince. I used that skin for the longest time, until I found a flat black version of Metro. [img_thumb]http://i.imgur.com/bZHvxuX.png[/img_thumb] [URL="http://jdsunny76.deviantart.com/art/Metro-for-Steam-Gotham-Black-475628146"]Source[/URL], for those interested.

[QUOTE=Scratch.;46865496]Dark as my soul desktop :v:[/QUOTE] Fuck yea. :v: This is how it looks like, most of the time: [img_thumb]http://i5.minus.com/iM7oxnqHks3F7.png[/img_thumb] There are some minor annoyances, for instance... it highlights *all* the games in the library, not just the installed ones... in that screenshot, I currently have Batman: Arkham City, Aliens vs. Predator, Bioshock and Blood: The Chosen installed, and the rest of them aren't greyed out - as in, not installed. And the Big Picture icon is on top of the "back" browser button, which triggers Big Picture every time, if you're not careful... but all in all, I don't mind (yet). I still launch all games via "right click + game" from the taskbar icon, though.

this news wouldn't be so bad to me if pixelvision wasn't the only skin (default included) that didn't look shit-ugly to me

Speaking of skins, [URL="http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1402672"]Blue Pulse[/URL] doesn't look half bad IMO. [img_thumb]http://i.imgur.com/JqiEnV4.png[/img_thumb]

I feel like one of those special people who stopped using skins because each steam update broke them and I couldn't be fucking arsed fixing them. Default one's improved a fair bit over the years but it still wastes a fuckload of space.
