Introduction

This guide will show you all of different showcases you can have on your profile.
First of all the aim is to show NOT to explain in details. If you need some help i linked few guides. For example : find more in the one below !
http://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=736635300

I'll be separating the showcases by category with a very brief description of each showcase.
Showcases are in menu order. If you need something specific you can find your way with this ⌬ .
Showcase can be used for :
  • [color=#f0a]⌬ Achievements[/color]
  • [color=#f00]⌬ Artwork, Images, Gif[/color]
  • [color=#fa0]⌬ Badges[/color]
  • [color=#ff0]⌬ Emoticons, emots art, Text (formatable)[/color]( more about this in Custom Info Box section )
  • [color=#af0]⌬ Information (automatic, not editable)[/color](how much item you have, etc...)
  • [color=#0f0]⌬ Items[/color]
  • [color=#0af]⌬ Text (not formatable), Ascii art[/color]( more about this in Review Showcase section )

The original creator of each showcase presented is linked below is creation, you can clic and see some nice profiles !
Enjoy (ノ´ヮ´)ノ*:・゚✧

<None Selected>

This is the worst ! 𝔻𝕠 𝕟𝕠𝕥 𝕦𝕤𝕖 !༼ ಥ﹏لಥ ༽ ᵘgᵍʰ
Rarest Achievements [color=#af0]⌬[/color][color=#f0a]⌬[/color]

Rarest achievements is a pretty bad showcase in my opinion. It will show rarest but not hardest to have, so you'll end up having achievements from a game everybody have but no one play. Even if you are a pro player, 𝔻𝕠 𝕟𝕠𝕥 𝕦𝕤𝕖 !
Game Collector [color=#aaff00]⌬[/color]

Game collector can be pretty cool but it's kinda hard to set it proprely, because of the tons of games you have to look to find the one you want. You can set any game you want using the following guide!
http://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=610115296

You can use it at pattern

original author

Show so hidden gem and amazing numbers

original author

Or even create a sentence "ᴳᵒⁿᵉ ᴴᵒᵐᵉ/ ᴮᵉᵗʷᵉᵉⁿ ᵐᵉ ᵃⁿᵈ ᵗʰᵉ ⁿᶦᵍʰᵗ / ᴺᵒ ᵒⁿᵉ ᵇᵘᵗ ʸᵒᵘ / ˢᵀᴱᴬᴹ"

original fool
And he made a guide about it !

Item Showcase [color=#00ff00]⌬[/color]

Items showcase is one of my favorite, you can show your expensive stuff, but mostly show you favorite emoticons.
http://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=760641169

You can also simply put items going with your theme

original author

And you can also make a pattern or write a word or two:

original author
Items Up For Trade [color=#aaff00]⌬[/color][color=#00ff00]⌬[/color][color=#ffff00]⌬[/color]

This showcase is a great opportunity to add text to some of your favorite items

original author

As always you can make a pattern and make it even better with some emoticons

original author

Since few items are letters you can add a word and something related under it

original author

And below you can see a great example of the previous advices

original author

But it can work really well as a second info box too.

Badge Collector [color=#ffaa00]⌬[/color]

Badge collector is not used enough, some bagdes are very beautiful. People mainly use it for pattern purpose

But mostly, it's a great opportunity to show how dedicated you are to one game, since the showcase also show number of guides, screenshot, artwork ... that you've published, and even badge and success progression !

original creator
Screenshot Showcase [color=#ff0000]⌬[/color]

Screenshot showcase can be very different between profiles.
Some stay classic and just put beautiful screenshot. Little details, title is centered !

original author

Some other like images and add random or background related things

original author

You can even manage to do a background related screenshot

Custom Info Box [color=#ffff00]⌬[/color]

Custom info box is the showcase you need to show your love for ascii arts, or emoticons art or emoticons collection. A guide to emoticons art :

original author

Example of a more complex emoticon art

Favorite Group [color=#aaff00]⌬[/color][color=#00aaff]⌬[/color]

Favorite Group is a average bad showcase in my opinion, but since there is an image you can put one of your group there and make it match your profile colors, and of course you can make some advertising too.
original author (superb profile)

You can now add any group with this guide http://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=734434281
Review Showcase [color=#00aaff]⌬[/color]

Review showcase is tricky because you can't use emoticons or images so it's time for old fashion internet art : ascii art ! Since Summer 2017 you can format your text.

original creator

All unformatable text can be formated using this kind of sites : {COLLEGAMENTO RIMOSSO} or {COLLEGAMENTO RIMOSSO} or {COLLEGAMENTO RIMOSSO}
And ascii art can be found on the internet and : here[www.chris.com]
You can also convert an image to ascii art using this kind of tool : here[manytools.org]
You can also insert text emojis ☚(゚ヮ゚☚)[japaneseemoticons.me]
Of course all of this is also available for formatable text ;)

Workshop Showcase [color=#aaff00]⌬[/color][color=#00aaff]⌬[/color]

Workshop Showcase is only usuable if you have a workshop worth to show.
You may want to show how much success you have or make a joke in the description.

original creator
Your Workshop Showcase [color=#ff0000]⌬[/color]

Your Workshop Showcase is another occasion to add an image. You may want to use this guides :
http://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=726324580
http://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=727014963

You can just have a big image working with your theme
original author

or even a beautiful gif (see on his profile)
original author

My advice to get rid of the ugly separtion is to make some logo or put images of badges or items.

original author
Or chinese character

Avatar [color=#ff0000]⌬[/color]

Your avatar is your most seen picture. It will appear everywhere.
Something simple is more efficient.
You can make your image look like it's not a square by adding the default background

You also make it match with the background

Summary [color=#ff0]⌬[/color]

Summary if another custom info box, I think it's best to keep it short and full of links
