btw, this question is for the Steam Skins experts..

is there a quick way of finding out what numbers correspond to certain colours? i know 100-115 or so is for the colour blue since i was playing around with the trackerscheme file in the skins\resources folder

or the only way to find out is through trial and error? (which would suck.. since u have to restart Steam every time for a colour change and we all know Steam takes forever to load at starting up)

there are 3 numbers... 255 255 255 is black and 0 0 0 is white...
"red green blue"

Now is a good time to tell people NOT to post their own skins. Anyone can change color files in a text file. Please keep them to yourself unless you do something besides change colors/font/icons

80 threads about "LOOK AT MY SKIN I CHANGED THE COLROSL!@!!" = bad :/

Affirmative, it's the alpha value


Personnaly I like that people share their skins cuz it gives ideas and it's not everybody who knows how to change the colors or know how to put the right colors together.

 

[mannyfresh027]

its ugly.

changing the color barely qualifies as a skin

In that pic it looks like you can see A LOT of servers.....but for some reason I cannot see ANY. I think it'd due to all my computer ports being closed (anyone know how to open som??)


As for the skin itself, it's okay, but for me it has just a little too much orange going on....


Uhm...:cheers: ?

They're probably trying to hack steam and spy on Valve.

now that is cool...

of course, gearbox has been closely tied to valve in the past, so it's not a huge surprise.

Hmmmm, actually, I wonder if gearbox is working on something for valve right now...have there been any announcements???

Just so everyone knows, the numbers are a standard format:

Red Green Blue Alpha

All values from 0 to 255, 255 being full colour.

I tried making a skin using some alpha, at like 100 and it wasn't translucent at all.
