Is the status 'Invisible' the same as offline?
Im use to the other layout, and there doesnt seem to be an "offline" status anymore.

Now that i think about it, the status 'invisible' makes me feel powerful.

You'll still get notifications while Invisible, but your friend's won't see that you're online.

The Beta client has Offline easily accessible if you want Offline mode, and there are ways to get it in the current client.

They have now added the offline setting back in the beta build. So you'll have both.

No it isn't showing (yet) for those not in the beta testing. Although as I have just joined the beta here is my experience at this time:

If you want to join the beta the go to top left - Steam ---> Settings and choose 'Account' there you will have an option to join the beta. It will close your Steam client here and reboot once the updates have taken place. Then you will be able to see the beta options which does allow you an offline mode.

I meant when they start playing a game or sign in.

Report them for what? Posting a link to an artwork they uploaded?

That artwork is 'clickable' and it links to my profile.

I have no idea what is going on here.

It does not. The reason you're seeing your avatar is because you can post a comment. Only you see that. I see mine.

I still have no idea but I guess if it's OK then I'll take your word. That is how sensitive I am now with Steam and the possibilities/potential it has.

So I have been informed already... And still don't know what was posted there... All I could see on the right was a link to my profile though my avatar. Sorry to all but I had to react and that, is that.

I thought 'artwork' was just pics which weren't screenshots. I had no idea about this 'interactivity'...
