I can not create guides (SOLVED)

[RBunFoX]

Good to all, I've been wanting to do a guide for some time but for some reason when I want to do it, it says "there has been a problem when requesting my request".

This happens to me when I try to make a guide to steam.

In L4D2, for example, if I click on guide from the library, it takes me directly to the steam store.

If I go into community guides and click create guide, I get the same error as at the beginning.

Is there a reason or a fault for not letting me create guides?
Someone knows something about it?

Don't know, I made my guide without any hitches.

Thank you, the problem is that I have created guides, guides.

I would understand that I am "wrong" if steam would have prohibited me from creating guides for any reason, but I do not make senseless guides and luckily they have never eliminated any of them.

For that reason I do not understand why I get that error, if I know there are other people who can create them xD

Open one of the guides you have published
I opened one of yours then clicked on guides it took me here, do you see create a guide

The guide I made was Forest Village on the right of this page is create a guide.
can you see these?

It does seem to be an illusive one to find Create a Guide tab.

I'm using the steam client on PC.

I can start the creation of the guide. Add the title, the image, a description and choose the categories.

When I give to keep and continue is when I get the error.

I have tried different juices that I bought in the steam shop, but none of them gives me the option to continue with the guide as it does not happen to me from the point I mentioned.

Sorry I edited my comment.
Do you verify guide then save?
You have made them before.
Could be a glitch with Steam?
Try just saving that go back to your profile check it is there.
Try deleting Steam web cache and Steam downloads.
Just a thought. Sorry i can't help any further with that but I would blame Steam.
You make good guides but they are in a different language.

Thanks for your time.

It is already solved, apparently it was a problem with the image, although in the guide it says that as a minimum the image must be square and 195x195 and mine was square of 250x250. I do not understand where the fault was the truth, but I have been able to solve it by adding another image. Thanks for your time.

I had no issues uploading an image 200x200px, but the problem I had was my image was a PNG. Changing it to a JPEG worked

bro le ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ steam keeps being a ♥♥♥♥ and keeps saying "error our system is ♥♥♥♥" not allowing me to make my guide. nothing to do with the image too.

[zaphodikus]

yeah the error messages for image uploads has caught me out once before too, as I also like to mess about a bit with formats. Had to start over. I just save often and keep it in draft until I am done nowadays.

That was it, I resized to 195x195 and it worked for me
