Rafferty's Mobius as backdrop on Steam

I don't usually launch via Steam, but as I got ready to play this soothing image of home met my eyes. :)

Are Steam backdrops randomly generated?

I suspect they choose a rotating backdrop from your screenshots folder or pr shots.

Rule 1: Pillage. Then burn.
Rule 2: No such thing as overkill, as long as there are reloads.

Maybe so. Though I've never taken that particular screenshot I've noticed that Steam seems to capture random shots?

going to ask the same thing, as I have never taken a screenshot when playing the game. I don't even have it installed anymore on steam though the screen shot hints at a time when we only had 10,000 members.

Couldn't this be considered a violation of some kind? Though I know the net owns everything you do online... ;)
