Good stuff!

Edit: "Pssst! Watch for your avatar to appear in an upcoming game!" when you upload your avatar. TF2 anyone? :D :D :D
 
It looks great, Steam is shaping up nicely. On another note, Steam reckons I am "Nearly Lifeless" :D
 
D:

Well if anyone has set up a group called halflife2.net then invite me! :O
 
Holy shit....I'm in love! :LOL: The Steam Community is the best thing since sliced bread! :LOL:
 
I know everyone is excited and all but there's a few problems I see already. First thing no games support the in game msgs with this update. Secondly it's a little creepy how you can view someone's friends list and their friend's friends list with no way to not show the friends and leave the profile alone.

All in all, the new skin is nice, the chat works(minus the voice). Once it gets polished it's going to turn out really good.
 
Just so you people know, don't put in your real name or exactly where you live because it will show up on your profile.
 
Yay, just what we need! A myspace for steam. :dozey: I don't want people knowing who I have on my friends list either.
 
no games support the in game msgs with this update.

I find this to be extremely annoying. Now I have to alt+tab anytime i want to read a message from a buddy, and then alt+tab back into my game.

This is terrible, i don't know why they would do this.

Because they're still in Beta for the community app, and they probably have to release a small update to each and every game they want it enabled in?
 
Yah I know. I realize it's a beta, but you would think they would have kept this implemented somehow before releasing the beta. I dunno, I'm just annoyed. I think I'll just uninstall the beta until this is fixed in a future release.

Add me! :p

What the hell? I tried to upload an avatar in Steam community ID thingy and it says that it isn't a JPG or a PNG, wtf? That's impossible, I even used this avatar right here. I even tried a smilie for pete's sake!
 
The little cartoon in the front page of the Steam Community is awesome.
 
Not sure why but the community/friends thing doesn't come up in-game when i hit shift+tab. Works on my brothers system.
