I liked the version with the red streak better:

Didn't even noticed it changed, new one is horrible.

Oh, I didn't even know one existed lol. I've never had an icon for it (bought it from Amazon, didn't activate on steam), so I just cut up this image from a google image search

That's a really weird coincidence that I ended up with the same layout...

No, the really weird coincidence is yours is nearly identical to an even older version:

Does anyone have one for Planescape torment or Tribes?

I would make one myself, but it would look like something a 4 year old created.

Can anyone make a nice grid image for System Shock 1 and 2?

I'm not that good at image editing, but here's what I did a while ago. I remember SS1 being difficult because I couldn't find any high quality assets or wallpapers to use.

Thanks for the image.

This is kind of off topic, but how do you run Origin game in Steam? Will adding the .exe allow the overlay to work?

Depends on the game. Not every Origin games requires origin to be running while you play the game. I own Dragon Age 1 and 2 on Origin, and I can just boot em up without it running. However games like Battlefield 3, and Mass Effect 3 require Origin to be running for some stupid reason, so those will run in the background.

Edit: By the way, thanks so much for the help earlier. This update just makes me so happy. i couldn't stand looking at the grey boxes for my non-steam games. I've literally bought steam games before even when I owned the retail copy because I hated the gray boxes...

I'm not really good at making pretty icons, if anyone has some good ones to use for the following games, please post. Final fantasy XIV, Starcraft II, Tera, and To the Moon. those are all to complete my collection.
 
Well, I may as well post the lot. Here is a Mediafire link containing 900 grid images. I started making a lot of these for my non steam games back during the Beta UI update, in hopes that there would be support for custom images. Most of them should be non steam games, but there might be a steam game image shoved in there by accident.
Quality is a bit hit or miss, since like I said, I was mostly learning how to do basic image editing when making these. Also, seems that there are a couple images that won't load on Steam. They need to be converted from Indexed to RGB color and resaved.


Edit: New permanent link containing correct size images

Is it possible to somehow get the orignal Crysis 2 grid view image before they removed it?
Using this for now, copy pasta out of steam.

will learn eventually
Does this also work with non-steam games added to your library? Because I just tried it with tribes, but it doesn't work...

Subscribed to thread, will update now and start changing when I come home from work.

Would like normal Crysis 2 as well, was thinking of just "upgrading" to maxiumum just to fix the icon :/

Most of the games listed here are non-steam games so I'm sure it should.

well, I just activated the beta. The button to add the image isn't there otherwise. The pic is 460x215 and in jpg format. Still nothing changes...

Only TGA would work for me.

I'm trying to make a bunch of icons for all the free indie games I have on here. Having tons of fun.
 
Update 27 for the indie title Cortex Command was released a couple days ago. Resized the title to make a Steam image. When I find some good concept art I'll make a better one.

And here are some I just made for my Retail PC Copy of PURE (which is better than nail'd and should be on Steam):

Wow thank you so much for uploading these! Our tastes in games are very similar as I found most of the icons for my non-steam games. Do you by any chance have a Gabriel Knight 2 icon? I only found 1 and 3.
