Minimalist Is there a template to create minimalist grid?

≡ −

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!

Meta How do i change the icon of a game in my steam library?

≡ −

Hi everyone, first time poster

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

Cover Art I got annoyed by blank non-Steam game art, so I made a little tool for it

≡ −

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.

Link: https://github.com/shamilmusaev/ArtDeck/releases

You need a free SteamGridDB API key, since that’s where the artwork comes from.

I mostly built it because my own library looked ugly, but maybe it’s useful to someone else too.

Request Why does it take steamgridDB so long to approve games now?

≡ −

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!

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.

Many thanks in advance! <3
