Yes. It's the same as uploading a avatar for your user profile. You'll just edit the group settings and you'll find a place for the avatar, you can't miss it.

Also, limitations are 200kb / 1280x1024 I believe. 184x184 is the maximum size that's displayed.

Help. When ever i try to upload an image from google (the images are 184 x 184) it says "#Error_BadOrMissingSteamID" Help.

If u are getting an image from a website, first u need to Save that image to your local drive, then point to the file on your local drive in order to upload to Steam.

Steam will not accept direct-URL-capture like Facebook and some others do.

When I made a group myself, it used my profile avatar by default.
When I went to change it, for some reason it wouldn't work.
I tried it again next day, worked fine. So yea IDK.

Ignore this cause it resizes images and 2MB is max not 1MB

It does resize them but it does not necessarily mean the are then below max image size. I make quite a few Custom Steam Avatars I know how it works.
