A bit of searching and I found a Steam profile that had it (22140). Using the number however doesn't return anything and clicking on the game in his profile takes you to Penumbra Black Plague Gold Edition (22120).

Thanks! You can get the header with a URL formatted like this:

I guess I'll just have to search for someone who has the game if I need to again.

Here's one I created:

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.

This is amazing. So many games I was looking for, especially GOG games.

I bet you're glad this actually happened, otherwise all that effort for nothing.

This one was in the Steam forums thread.

A link to that thread should be in this OP also.

I'm not completely satisfied with these, so I might try reworking them at some point, but here are icons for Cryptic Comet's games.

Armageddon Empires


Six Gun Saga


Solium Infernum

Valru, how do you launch individual games without launching Dolphin first?

Create a .bat (open notepad save as game.bat)

example.bat said:
"C:\Program Files\Dolphin\dolphin.exe" /e "C:\Program Files\Dolphin\Games\GAME.iso" /b
Click to expand...

Then convert that .bat to an exe with a tool like this online one; make sure to select the invisible radial so it will hide the command line when launched. After that its as simple as adding that exe to steam.

edit: beaten, THANK VALRU. YOU DA MAN

EDIT #2: I noticed some of you uploaded images at the incorrect resolution. I can tell by the way they would misalighn themselves in the windows folder where I saved them all. (which I then confirmed by ordering the folder contents by 'Detail' and showing the images Dimensions.)

So, the OP should state a rule that you guys should PLEASE, Make sure your images are at 460x215 pixel's in resolution before submitting.

I re-sized the ones I found and reuploaded them:
Battlefield 3

Blaz Blue Calamity Trigger

Blaz Blue Continuum Shift

and even one of my own PURE logos

I opened GIMP and used the base of a The Witcher banner to get the right size, but I'll keep that in mind for my next submission.

I apologize in advance for the crappiness. I just literally learned how to use Photoshop today from an artsy friend.

Here's my attempt at doing one for Vampire: The Masquerade - Redemption on GoG.com.

whats wrong with my pic?
Click to expand...

nothing, It's actually the nicest BF3 logo I've seen out of the 6 I have from today and yesterday... i just noticed it wasn't 460x215 so i fixed it for ya bro.

I don't mind I just figured the more uniformity the better as the list grows. Figured I'd save other OCD'ers the trouble of resizing.

Yeah, I didn't mean to be a bother to anyone, I just noticed the uniform resolution from the Steam recommendation links was 460x215 (or aspect ratio of 92 : 43).

EDIT: In fact, every one of the images in the 900 Logo pool were in lower resolutions (albeit some were in the correct aspect ratio).

Yeah, I've started going through them all and correcting it once I noticed. The reason I had most of them in 451x211 was because that was how large the box was for the grid images at the largest setting, and that was how large the images needed to be for various mockups. Once I finish, I'll either post a new link, or see if I can update the previous one.

:D you just saved me hours, I was looking into mass re-sizing scripts for CS5, lol.

I can't wait to see what else you guys think of, I'm gonna set up those dolphin Links tomorrow afternoon, Valve needs to patch in Categories for the Grid view... would be heaven.

You can type in your category name in the search and it lists all games in that category, at least.

Another attempt at another one of my non-Steam games (making these icons is kind of addicting). I tried to make this follow the same style as the KOTOR Steam icon.

Alright, here is an updated link with the correct size for the images. I also made it a permanent link for if/when I want to add or change something.

How did you do this so quickly? Bravo, sir. I was gonna DL the old package with about 900 images to see how you managed to get the could to 1,100+ and still keep the size down, while fixing the resolutions... how?

Now, there has to be a way for you to categorize all of them alphabetically, once you collect all the new ones we've all been releasing... it'll be past 1000 and could be the place to go for all things "Custom Steam GRID Icons". :)

I know it's on Steam. I own it. Just liked that artwork more. Meant the Koei games by "games that should be on Steam"

I don't want to just make a bunch of requests, but if anyone were to make icons for, say, Halo 1/Custom Edition/Shadowrun/Viva Pinata I would surely use them.

Love that this is a thing, by the way.
