What is SteamBackgrounds.app?

A free tool to browse Steam profile backgrounds and crop them for Artwork showcases. Search and filter the catalog, then open the cropper to export PNG slices. No Steam login required.

How much do Steam profile backgrounds cost?

Prices vary on the Steam Community Market — often a few cents to a few dollars. Some are also in the Points Shop. We show synced prices; always confirm on Steam before buying.

What are animated Steam profile backgrounds?

Animated backgrounds play as looping video on your Steam profile. Static ones are a single image. Use the Animation filter to browse either type.

How do I crop a Steam background for my profile showcase?

Open any background and click Crop, or go to the Showcase cropper. Export a ZIP with Featured, Middle, and Right PNGs, then upload them to an Artwork showcase (Steam level 10+).

Is SteamBackgrounds.app affiliated with Valve or Steam?

No. SteamBackgrounds.app is an independent tool and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to Valve Corporation or Steam.

Can I use a background without buying it on Steam?

You can browse and preview here for free. To show a background on your Steam profile, you must own it — buy it on the Community Market, craft a badge, or redeem it from the Points Shop.
