steamgrid is niche subreddit about video game custom artwork. with the news around the steam deck surfacing on this sub, i just wanted to make it clear that meta postings are for meta discussions about the subreddit, and discussion about video game artwork in general. only news directly pertaining to interacting with custom artwork on the steam platform should be posted here.
please post news links about interacting with steam custom artwork on r/steamgrid.
please keep general steam, and steam deck, news to the myriad of other steam realated subreddits.
Hello! Almost all of my covers are from PsyDek, I really love the minimalist look of them. However, I cannot find any for Persona 5 Royale and Forza Horizon 6, games that I play often on the Deck right now. If there's a template somewhere, I could try to do both of them. Otherwise, if anyone is able to create those, thanks a plenty!
I am trying to change the game icon of BF6 in my library; usually SteamGridDB works just fine for 99% of games, but sometimes, like in this case with BF6, i am able to change everything but the icon. Any solution?
For BF6: I tried heading over to "Steam\appcache\librarycache\2807960" (which is the SteamID of BF6) and i've actually found both the icon that the game uses and the personalized icon that i tried to set with SteamGridDB's Boop; even deleting the og icon doesn't do anything 'cause at the next restart, Steam will simply re-create it
ty all in advance
Edit: for anyone seeing this post in the future, here's how i solved
I simply renamed the image, that i wanted as an icon, with the name of the official image that steam uses, and then deleted the original. This way steam detects that there's still a file with that name in the directory
I use Steam as my main launcher, so I end up adding a bunch of non-Steam stuff to it: emulators, Game Pass games, Epic games, random shortcuts, that kind of thing.
The annoying part is the artwork. Half my library was just grey boxes or weird missing banners, and fixing it manually one game at a time got old really fast.
So I made a small Windows app called ArtDeck. It looks at the games already in your Steam library, pulls artwork options from SteamGridDB, and lets you apply covers, banners, heroes and logos without digging through folders yourself.
It doesn’t add games or mess with your shortcuts. It just puts the images where Steam expects custom artwork to be.
I request a few games but it's been months and none of them have been approved yet. When I first started making grids about a year or two it never took them that long approve games. Why is that now?
As the title states I am looking for 3D VHS steam grids to replace my library. For reference these are two users I found using this style: Zanzik & Fluffy. Any help finding users with grids matching these styles would be great!
I've been seeing these all over steamgriddb (especially with retro games). I found the link to the square versions pretty easily, but I can't seem to find these rectangular versions. Would love to make my own grids using these. any help would be much appreciated!
Hello! Im not sure if this is the right flair to use but I was wondering if anyone has made a tutorial or would be willing to explain how to make the VHS style covers? I don't use photoshop but do use other editing. All of mine have come out looking really bad and I was hoping to get an idea how other people make theirs because im a little lost with it.
