just a quick tip for those new to photoshop and/or cropping/resizing. photoshop defaults to "bicubic automatic" when resizing for some reason. this gives a slightly sharp end product, which i don't like. i found straight up "bicubic" to look the best (closest to the original image).

here's "bicubic automatic" compared to "bicubic" (look at star on wall).

Made a custom icon for the upcoming Shadowrun Hong Kong, so it fits in better with the ones I'm using for Returns and Dragonfall. It's not the best, since I used the same base as the one that had been used for Dragonfall and just edited it up to the best of my meager ability.

Here's the ones I'm using for Returns and Dragonfall, no idea who made them but major props to whoever did!

Oblytile doesn't work for Windows 10 so I had to throw shortcuts with custom icons on Steam for all my games instead :/.

I'm using 'pin more' for the windows store which works quite well. It shows nice 310x150 tiles for the games in your steam/origin/uplay library, but if you want to shrink them to square you often need a replacement graphic because cropping the rectangular tile doesn't work for lots of the games.

Paid or free version? I have the free version and it launches Pin More onto the desktop every time you use a tile created by it, which is a bit distracting.

paid. And I just noticed the same thing. Really annoying. Hope it gets fixed or I'll look for something else.

edit: does 'pin steam' do the same thing? Trying the trial and when you click on a game it launches the app and then says I have to buy it to launch games, but it doesn't say if it'll always launch itself first.

Wasn't there like some trick you could do to make the borders between game tiles really small and it looked really nice?

Could you possibly edit out the "A post-nuclear role playing game" from Fallout 1 & 2 so that it's just a straight line along the bottom? Getting rid of the tiny TM from the corner of New Vegas would be nice as well, but I can fudge that one myself if need be.

Has anyone made textless icons for MGSV: GZ and TPP using Shinkawa art? I think it would look much nicer than the renders.

There's no real reason to add redundant library entries in order to use these other than more pretties and being reminded that these story DLC's exist, but I like them.
