Steam Skins

The most important thing about skinning in the new Steam is the change of the skinning method. Instead of using TrackerScheme.res, steamscheme.res is now used. The steamscheme.res file can be found in winui.gcf. To retrieve your own copy of it, use GCFScape or VTFEdit. The steamscheme.res file is located in the Steam\cached folder in the GCF.
