For the progressbar I was having issues finding a blue text color with enough contrast on both backgrounds (i.e., the progressbar for disk space free in dolohin)
Thanks for your input. I've already made changes in the 0.1 version but some work is still needed. Can I suggest that you raise issues on the repo (https://www.opencode.net/phob1an/steamy) as it makes things much easier for me to manage. Any thoughts about the wallpaper? I'm really not happy with it.

These seem like good resources to draw from.
Licensing for Steam's official assets (Links #1 & #3) are likely to be under their license; unfortunately, I'm not sure what that is. (You could just give credit to Valve/Gaben)
Link #2 is unlicensed shared art
10For someone who hasn't done a kvantum theme before; you wouldn't know it. This is an excellent effort and huge undertaking. You are my favorite theme developer here. Thank you for everything you've done; it's motivated me to get into theme development more.

Pure black also works for contrast on progressbar text colors. I'm using that now.

Just looked at them. Not gonna use any Steam branding but the blue/black texture thing seems the way to go.
Updated. Turned out quite different from what I was expecting.
Have just updated.
