Colored bars guide
Use the code below, just change #000000 to any color you need (you can use any any color picker, don’t forget about #) and change 111111 in two places on the third line to the correct game app number. You can see the number by visiting the game’s page, for example http://store.steampowered.com/app/499520
If you need a black font, change color: #fff to color: #000 on the first line.
<div style="position: relative; min-height: 69px; padding-left: 1rem; background: #000000; color: #fff; text-shadow: 1px 1px 0 black;">
<div style="float: right;">

To use a blue/green/other left border (I mark my beaten/completed games by it), change the first line into one of those:
Blue (completed) border -
<div style="position: relative; min-height: 69px; padding-left: 1rem; background: #000; color: #fff; text-shadow: 1px 1px 0 black; border-left: 7px solid #5BC0DE;">
Green (beaten) border -
<div style="position: relative; min-height: 69px; padding-left: 1rem; background: #000; color: #fff; text-shadow: 1px 1px 0 black; border-left: 7px solid #5CB85C;">
Red (won't play) border -
<div style="position: relative; min-height: 69px; padding-left: 1rem; background: #000; color: #fff; text-shadow: 1px 1px 0 black; border-left: 7px solid #D9534F;">
Yellow (unfinished) border -
<div style="position: relative; min-height: 69px; padding-left: 1rem; background: #000; color: #fff; text-shadow: 1px 1px 0 black; border-left: 7px solid #F0AD4E;">
If you still want more, you can use gradients =) Notice that I’ve changed min-height below to 71px, and also added style=”margin: 1px;” after <img - this will create 1 pixel border around the game’s image, which could be useful for images with white background.
To use gradients, you must first choose any plain color (background: #000000;). It’s not strictly necessary, but some older browsers do not support gradients, so this color would be shown instead), and after that just add this - background: linear-gradient(to right, #000000, #123ABC);. You can use “to right”, “to left”, or even “to top”, “to bottom left” - this is the direction of the gradient; after that is the first and the second of gradient’s colors.
<div style="position: relative; min-height: 71px; padding-left: 1rem; background: #000000; background: linear-gradient(to right, #000000, #123ABC); color: #fff; text-shadow: 1px 1px 0 black;">

Excellent! I should try this some time. I added a link to this in my guide.
