I absolutely love that the Filters menus no longer shrinks the game selection window. I can finally use a large amount of columns and it won't shift to a double row when I open the filter menu. However, I was wondering what led to the decision to use fullscreen background images rather than Steam's hero banners? It was one of the unique aspects of your theme and I really enjoyed the clean look of the game information text against a solid background.
Edit: I've made some small alterations to the Details page. I replaced Publisher with Genre, replaced Age Rating with Average Time to Finish (data pulled from HowLongToBeat), and added Completion Status to the top row. Additionally I removed the Game's Name from the top left corner. It's nice to have for games without logos but I didn't like how it looked with the logo next to it. I'm guessing this can't be handled dynamically. The first two are personal choices but I think the Completion Status looks good next to the Time Played. I just need to figure out the call to format it properly (currently it's displaying the raw variable). I also tried to resize the whole grid and restore the Hero banner across the top but I've run out of time to get that done. Hopefully I'll have another screenshot later this week with that finished.
I have no experience modifying the themes. Did you just do this through the GamesDetails file or was it more complicated? I like your Genre and HTLB very much, I would love to use them with this.
