I thought these pictures were for games you have installed.

I thought these pictures were for games you have installed.

Any games in your library, so HL1 mods and shortcuts included.

I'm happy with how it turned out.

Really want to play Syndicate.. wish Origin would have more sales.

Really want to play Syndicate.. wish ea wasn't so dumb.

Amen brother.

 

[JaseC]

Listen.

Listen, I've come from the future.

And this thread is filled with people asking "who's the girl in all your grid-view game images, JaseC."

The future is terrifying.

I'm happy with how it turned out.

You've given me an idea.

 

[Lamiafusion]

For the small group that plays it

Just did it real quick while listening to Giant Bomb After Hours. Someone can prob do it it better.

 

[SteveWinwood]

Oh shit just noticed custom names too! I'll finally know who's who in dota 2 gaf!

Also I'm just going to make all my games in grid view porn.

New Steam Beta:


- Added warning message for users on XP SP1 or lower, support will be dropped August 31th 2012.
- Grid view now supports applying custom images to games and shortcuts, via the grid item’s context menu
- Fixed a bug where if you were disconnected from Steam, then reconnected, any tabbed chats would paint wrong until you changed tabs
- Fixed clearing login information in case “Don’t save account credentials on this computer” is checked
- Fixed HTTP proxy related download issue
- Fixed client crash related to game stats system
- Logging more details about game download issues

HOW IS THIS NOT FRONTPAGE NEWS? Megaton of this E3.

 

[JaseC]

I suppose this means we'll soon (pursuant to Valve Time) be able to set custom background images for Detail View.

 

[TrumanBurbank]

Hope someone makes a Minecraft one. A better TF2 Beta one would also be nice.
HUGE thanks to everyone who is making these images by the way.

New page reminder:

[JustinBB7]

Yeeeeees finally I can replace the 4/5 broke images!

 

[Jomjom]

Valve wins E3. I'm not even joking.

Requesting banners for Minecraft and Cry of Fear (HL mod). This feature is great.

Damn, counting GOG, the emulated stuff and the current size of steam libraries, the next thing we're going to need is custom tabs for grid view browsing.

lol nice.

I still don't know how people manage to find their games in grid view.

Just begin typing and Steam will jump to it

alphabetical order

plus search!

and if you have steam selected and press a key (or just type the name) it'll instantly show you the games that start with that letter

I feel like this feature is gonna pump sales on GOG

It's going to get me to add the non-Steam games from the different indie bundles.

Some of the games I got on Windows Marketplace I'll finally play. Like Age Of Empires 3 which I think I got for 99 cents or something absurd like that.

 

[zkylon]

Gonna give it a shot, specially now that I can put a nice icon for PES and TW2 but we'll see. It's pretty, but it's just so effortless to filter by installed and then look at a simple list.

 

[Frankfurter]

Available seemingly everywhere except the US: Alan Wake (Standard Edition) £5.75 at Gamefly

Argh, I'm too late :/

Will we still see the Big Picture Mode today (tomorrow)? Did Valve say anything about it lately? I heard a rumor that it would be unveiled the next few days, but since valve doesn't have a conference or anything at E3...

 

[PaulLFC]

I'm not at home to check, but does Grid view organise all your games (both Steam and non-STeam added games) in alphabetical order, or does it do what List view does when you sort it by installed/not installed, and list all your non-Steam games at the end of the list?

 

[Glass Rebel]

Custom grid-view images? E3 redeemed.

 

[Sentenza]

That's just cruel.

 

[Stumpokapow]

oh my god e3 miracleton

 

[Joe Molotov]

I'm gonna use that as my custom icon for Bad Rats.

 

[Minsc]

Waiting until it's revealed whether Big Picture Mode will use a different aspect ratio for thumbnails before I bother making everything look nice, but it's great to see it finally supported. Now if only they'd start tracking playtime for non-steam games as well.

 

[Tambini]

Wait, we can use custom grid images now? Praise Valve!

 

[Glass Rebel]

Now I only need the options to rename and hide games.

 

[wutwutwut]

They already do that in the overlay. It's merely a matter of adding support in the details UI.

 

[kennah]

I can't wait for the tears that will flow when Steam forgets your custom images at the same time as your categories.
Maniacal laugh.

 

[ShaneB]

I suppose this means we'll soon (pursuant to Valve Time) be able to set custom background images for Detail View.

It already sorta does. When you take screenshots for Non-steam games, it puts those up as the background images, so I guess the structure is there.

 

[fluffydelusions]

I must have missed something. What is going on with all the images in this thread??

 

[MNC]

Custom Grid View Icons!

Custom Grid View Icons!

Ahhh nice!

 

[JaseC]

Oh, nice. My ignorance is due to the fact I don't use Steam's inbuilt screenshot function.

 

[C_H_T]

nvm.

 

[MRORANGE]

That's just cruel.

The sad thing is that I've spent more time working on HL3 than valve has in the last 5 years.

I'm gonna use that as my custom icon for Bad Rats.
