Put a blue corner banner for EARLY ACCESS games

[huffadopolis]

So that those of us that realize what 'early access' means, can safely ignore the titles until they are completed.

You know how you have the purple DLC corner banners for DLC games, so that nobody is confused about what it is they are clicking on, and are not tricked?

Do that, but light blue and put EARLY ACCESS warning signs all over these for the community thank you.

No, he means like this:

Note, it's added when you use the "Enhanced Steam" addon for Chrome and Firefox.

TirithRR is correct, I did not know about enhanced steam until after I posted my suggestion, but this is something I would prefer to have in the steam client game banners/icons as well.

If you look in the image TirithRR posted, in big while letters underneath the banner it does say Early Access Now Available even if the little blue corner banner is not there.

That is because he's using enhanced steam. That is a mod, not something steam has for the vanilla client.

WhiteKnight77 is correct, the words (with enhanced steam extension disabled) state "Early Access Now Available" on both steampowered dot com and in the steam client.

However this thread is more about the suggestion for a blue corner banner for games in the 'early access' category, similar to how DLC content has a purple banner that says "DLC" on it, so you know before you click, and at a glance, the unique category of the product whose image you are considering clicking on.

Text is easier to miss, when the picture is the main and prominent attraction.

(especially so for the small game icons, such as in the top 100 lists, new release lists, etc in the steam client, on those lists the icon is the prominent feature, second comes the game's title in a larger bold white font, in smaller font and greyish lettering comes the title's categories which can include 'early access' as not the first listing, but the second listing so you really have to look hard to figure out which games are early access games in the steam client right now)

I do agree... and really if you want it right now there is a easy way to get it... the same way DLC or Soundtrack are mark with it..
Steam it self dose not add that mark automatic.. its the Dev that adds it when he uploads the photo

So if we want it we may be better to post to the Devs of the game them self
