Another good option will be to have the posibility to remove the game you
dont want. Like a Hide Game or someting.

Subject: Re: [hlcoders] Steam UI Update


These are my thoughts on the Steam UI update, for what they are worth.

Bugs:

- As Micheal Hobson says, the last letter in some mod names are cut off.
- Some games have squares in the Update column instead of a News link.
- More then half of the last game on the list can be covered up by the
bottom of the panel before a scrollbar appears.
- Some third party mods read "Third-party" as the developer and have no
link, others read "[ Third-Party ]" and have a link to
www.steampowered.com from them.
- Links to third party mod home pages should open up in the user's
default browser, not in Internet Explorer.

Suggestions:

- I hardly noticed the buttons at the bottom. Maybe they can be more
apparent?
- I always assumed that when the game list was revised it would use a
tree to organize games better. I think that ideally the user shouldn't
have to scroll. Wouldn't it be nice to collapse all similar games into
one entry? For example, all third-party mods, all Valve games, all
uninstalled games, and all Coming Soon games (which would of course be
expanded again when a new one comes out!)
- Would it be hard to give third-party games icons, and links to the
home page from the Developer column?

Kudos:

- I'm not sure if there was a command to exit before, but I'm glad there
is one now.
- The UI looks really slick! Good job.

Tomorrow I'll send you some text to place for The Specialists under
Third-Party Games. The team is still deciding on what it should be.
