Hello guys,

I need your opinion on this steam skin. ;)
More Info + Download
You can find all infos in there.

It is bright I know, but it is supposed to be ;) after all it's inverted standard steam skin -_-

Do you like it? What do you think needs to be improved?

Thank you for your time

Make shadow under 'store', 'library', 'community' smaller/brighter.

That shadow should be the same size as on original steam skin. I might change it to a brighter color though.

Maybe a bit more variety at the text colors but all in all it looks very good(:

Where do you think it needs different colors?

I personally like it when there are different colors for games that are installed/not installed/updating because my internet connection sucks.

I like how it looks in the picture, but I've never used custom skins for Steam and am not sure how it goes.. How to install it, how to remove it and go back to default and stuff. What about updates, when client changes and Valve adds new options (like sharing)?

To add a skin, just download it, and stick all the files into /Steam/skins on whatever drive you have Steam installed. Then go to the Steam client settings -> Interface -> there should be a drop down list with the names of any skins you've put in the folder, select the one you want -> restart Steam.

To uninstall, the 'safer' way is to go back to the settings and re-select default skin, then delete everything in /Steam/skins. The quicker way is just deleting everything in the /Steam/skins folder, but that can break the client - I had to reinstall the client once when I did that.

As for updates, just check the download location for the skin you're using every month or so and make sure that the download is still using the same 'build number'. If not, download the new one and copy the files over to /Steam/skins, overwriting any old files in there. Usually skin updates only occur when something big changes on the Steam client.
Some skin developers have a Steam group that they'll post links to the new version when they've updated it so it makes it a little easier to see updates.

Thanks. I tried the skin, but there are some parts of it that are black, and (I guess) should not be, as it should be opposite of dark colors.

I'll risk a guess and say, that the skin is for the standard version, while you have opted in into the Steam beta update.

Since beta often has a slightly different (and bigger) set of assets and style elements, some skin creators provide 2 different versions.

An example would be Pixelvision.

As mentioned above, just a guess.

Could be. I'm in the family sharing group.

Instructions are written right after you click on the download button.

Its pretty simple, just copy the Invert folder from the zip file right into the steam/skins dir and then change your skin in steam-settings-interface ... it will ask for restart of the steam. To remove it just do the process backwards.
When steam gets updated, I have to update my skin as well or it might not work properly anymore. You have to redownload it and overwrite skin files.

What parts are black for you?

Too bright for me. IMO dark skins suit better with Steam. But it could be nice on MAC since it has light colors in its interface.

A lot of people say that it's too bright for them :/
You are used to dark steam skin and I can understand that.

Yes, that too. But since I use dark colors for my Win 8 then dark Steam looks better with it. But this is definitely nice try and it looks good. Just not for me at the moment.

P.S. Kinda reminds me of an old website that had it's skin in same colors. Good memories.

No and won't do it. It's white and I just hate white skins.

I also think this skin is too bright, at least for my taste.

I could suggest using an "Android Holo Gray" color, as used on many Google and vanilla ICS / JB apps. But then the original purpose for the skin is ruined...

There is a lot of gray colors dude, which one would you like to replace? I might create another skin and use different colors.
