Is there a way to get more theme colors for my profile?

[Indiana]

Can't seem to find where to get more. I know I found a color to add before, and I added it. I don't know where I found it though, its been a while. It doesn't seem to be in the place where you get backgrounds and avatars. Any help would be appreciated.

You can get more profile themes on the Steam Points Shop:

https://store.steampowered.com/points/shop/c/profilebundles

Some of them cost 5,000 points, but most of them cost 10,000 points. These profile bundles are the only way to acquire new profile themes and they come with more items (avatars, avatar frames, etc) - to use only the profile theme you equip it and then change the background, avatar frame and mini profile.

You can preview how a profile theme will look in your profile by using a Google Chrome extension. I use it a lot and it's very helpful. More info on this guide:

Ok, but how did I get the one I got before? Most of them are over 5000, wow. Anyway, thank you for your help.

If you have bought a profile theme before, then:

* Go to your profile and click 'Edit profile'

* Select 'Special Profile' (on the left)

* Choose a game / seasonal profile

* Then, if you wish, unequip the avatar frame, background and mini profile to keep the profile theme only

There's a video showcasing how to do it:

Please note that if you bought a Special Profile (or any Steam Points Shop items) and had to refund a game, if your points were very low, to avoid having negative Steam Points (since it's not possible), Steam will remove the latest Steam Points Shop item you got. For instance: you bought a 10,000 points profile and then you had only 20 points left, and then refunded a game that gave you 200 Steam Points - since it's not possible to have your points balance as negative, this recent item will be removed.

I never bought a bundle. I only got a purple color sometime ago. And some got added somehow also. I have six colors all together. Don't really want to download anything from the net. I haven't refunded anything. I appreciate your help.

Oh, then it's super easy to change your profile theme and you don't need to buy anything! Here's how to do it:


* Go to your profile and click 'Edit profile'

* Select 'Theme' (on the left)

* There are six profile themes / colors there. The purple one is called 'Cosmic'

I hope it helps!

Yah I know how to do all that. I just thought there might be a way to get more, like you can all the other ones, like avatar, and mini background, and background. I have gotten a few of those at the points shop.. I guess that is all then. You are so nice, thank you.

If the pattern follows, maybe Steam will offer a special profile for free (for a limited time) this year. It happened with the Steam 3000 profile (2022) and the Steam Puzzle Fest profile (2023).

For instance, that's how you unlocked the Steam 3000 profile back in 2022:

And for the Puzzle Profile, you had to claim it on this link (which it seems to be still working, maybe? Give it a try):

https://store.steampowered.com/sale/16212626125

A good way to know about these freebies is checking the Steam forums when a new major sale is on (as those profiles were offered on major sales). You can check the next big Steam sales on SteamDB: https://steamdb.info/sales/history/
