I thought there was an option in Steam to change the notification corner... lemme check around a bit.

Edit: Seems a few people note that you have to do some changes to a few Steam files to setup this sort of thing... if the game itself doesn't have an overriding value to set Steam to a corner. And apparently a few games are set to have the pop-up come in a different corner.

A pop-up in the middlebottom of the screen would be better.

AFAIK that spot isn't used much, if at all.

Agreed, it's always been a huge pain in the backside for me, but...

TWI didn't create Steam, Valve did. It'd probably be better to suggest it on their forums instead. :p

I read somewhere that it defaults to the bottom right, but game developers can set the corner Steam runs the pop-ups in. So unless Valve adds new placements like the middle bottom (which would be probably the best place)... I'd suggest top right.

What they should have is a customisable overlay.

So you can position everything where you want it to be.
