However, you can control where this widget appears on the sale page by creating a sale section and
choosing the type 'Curator or Creator home'. This section will now appear above the above widget and
you can place this anywhere on the sale page. When this sale section exist then the widget will not
appear at the default location. You may create as many of these sections as needed. You can choose
to customize this section to point to other creator homes, for example, to high light the related
franchise pages with games on your sale page.<br />

As Steam processes the trailer you upload, it will automatically generate two images needed by the
store:<br />

<li>
A poster image of 600px x 380px that displays in the video player until the video has loaded

</li>
</ul>

If you are unhappy with the image automatically generated by Steam, you may upload your own image to
represent your trailer. It must be a frame from the video itself, and must be 1920x1080 .jpg or
.png<br />
<br />
<strong>Best practices:</strong> Try to get a frame that is representative of unique content in your
trailer, and avoid text.
