Metro for Steam - 2.9by ~BoneyardBrew

Designs & Interfaces / Application Interfaces

metroforsteam.com - Screenshots - Steam Community - Donate (much appreciated!)

Description:
A skin for Steam inspired by Microsoft's design language, Metro UI.

Installation:
1. Extract the ZIP to its own folder. This folder should contain the following: Friends, graphics, Public, resource, Servers, Steam, custom.styles, readme.txt.
2. DeviantART gives downloads a long file/folder name so I suggest changing it. I recommend "Metro for Steam - (Version #)".
3. Copy "Metro for Steam - (Version #)" to "Steam/skins/".
4. In Steam, go to "Menu - Settings - Interface" and change "default skin" to "Metro for Steam - (Version #)" under the third dropdown menu.
5. Restart Steam

Customization:
Accent color and fonts can be changed with the dedicated settings app, courtesy of ~SoapyHamHocks.

It can be downloaded at the following link.

Friends List:
2.8 introduces three layout choices for the friends list: Fat (Default), Chubby, and Slim.

Screenshots can be viewed at the following link.

To change to a layout other than default:
1. Navigate to "Metro for Steam - (Version #)/Friends/Options/LAYOUT OF YOUR CHOOSING/"
2. Copy the "FriendsDialog.res" file in that directory to your "Metro for Steam - (Version #)/Friends/" directory, overwriting the default.
3. Restart Steam
