Inspired by this thread http://blackbox4wind...-rc6-by-mojmir/ I created my own steam-like style, called "steamlined".

 

Since I think it's a matching style for steam users (and for others, too) I want to share it with you. Hope you like it.

The menu highlights actually look a bit Nvidia reminiscent. That's probably one altercation I'd make on my original design is tweaking the menu highlights making a AMD and NVIDIA color scheme changes to the menu highlights. Looks less glassy as well which is the other thing I had considered doing changing the stylemaker texture's on the menu title and the toolbar the horizontal gradient I think kinda matches steam client a bit more authentically. I just happened to really like the glassy look and went with it You made the actual text not bold as well which matches the client better, but I just felt the bold is easier to read. Styling choices and decisions basically nice work though. Wonder what other styles would be good to emulate outside AMD, NVIDIA, and INTEL I think a Nintendo theme could look really good off the top of my head.

Hi knowom,

 

thanks for your feedback. Most appreciated. Nvidia was something I actually did not have in mind when creating that style but yeah, matches the Nvidia-green. Regarding bold or normal (or even thin) fonts I always tend to normal or thin because it costs less space.

I also think that themes (instead of styles) might be an interesting thing to do but Nintendo in general might a bit too general. Maybe one could do a Super-Mario-Theme or a Zelda-Theme for instance.
