Steam Game Covers

Just wanted to say Hi, Decided to sign up so I can practise making my own covers and submitting them, Some great covers here as well. Hoping to make some steam backups onto a disk just so I can use these covers

Feel free to add me on steam

Hello and welcome!

Thank you Pie Monster. I hope to stick around. I got around to try my first cover, It's for an awesome game called Shank 2.

Struggling a bit with how to do the back piece, with the rating, Company logos and things, I'm going to most likely take the small print and blurb from the steam store page Anything you recommend for making it easier? I sadly only have access to paint.

Tried to get it so the images are not to stretched

First of all: Welcome!

I'd suggest trying GIMP. I never used it as I have Photoshop but it's free and from what I've heard it's a great tool.
That would make the creation of the logo part on the back a lot easier though it would require some training to get used to it. But I think that's worth it.

Hello!

Thanks, I had considered Gimp but never got around to it, Will have to try it. Thank you.

In terms of power and features Gimp is the next best photo editor compared to Photoshop. You really should switch over to it for cover creation instead of Paint. You can download it for free here:

Ended up giving up on it, haha. Will rely on your guys covers because they're brilliant.

One day I shall sit down and learn, But until then thank you for the covers and that they're free.

Sorry you abandoned it. I hope you'll pick it up again someday!

I'm sure I will one day. I'm just lazy as it's the summer holidays. Looking to get Photoshop & finally get around to using my Graphics Tablet so this can be a starting point!
