You'll have to restart Steam to see this.

The content that was making up the store area of the new UI was actually
pointing at the wrong place (for people outside of Valve). This should
be updated now, so you'll see the new content.

The individual MOD areas of the (now updated) site show the screenshots.

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.
