STEAM Vindication!

Ok… so I can’t 100% confirm it was all me… but STEAM fixed the problem! (If you don’t remember, click here and then here.)

Although it’s not ideal, (i.e. you still can’t actually resize the window) they upped the window size to 1024x768 and, so far, I haven’t come across 1 situation where I had to scroll. This is GREAT because it ENORMOUSLY increased the experience. However, it does kinda SUCK because they’ve limited picture sizes to 1024x768. If memory serves, there were some much higher quality pics in the store previously. However, I’m willing to overlook that. You still get a decent browsing experience and the pictures are “good enough.”

Overall, I’m very pleased. I’d like to think that my little spat with tech support had something to do with it. Can I prove it? No… do I have any evidence at all to back that up other than timing? No… do I really think that out of the millions of STEAM users I was the only one to bring up this issue? No… But you know what?

I can’t prove otherwise either…   :)
