Custom Box Art not available anymore?

★★ Novice

My Origin client recently updated to the latest version (10.0.1.30958)  and it's caused me to lose the custom box art that I had set for some of my games.

 

Has this feature been removed completely, or is it simply somewhere else in the UI to change it now?

@InstantSunrise Indeed this feature is not available in the new client Frown

 

We will forward the request for the feature to make a return.

Why is the Custom Covers option gone?

★★ Novice

So I updated Origin tonight (or should I say I was forced to update) and I noticed that all my custom covers are gone.

 

Why the hell was this feature removed? When will it be implemented again? Why is Origin subjecting me to Man!Shepards ugly face once again?

 

Where else can I leave feedback for the origin team? Frankly, the option to change all my covers to female leads was the only good thing Origin ever did, and I want that feature back.

Origin 10 removing box art

★★★ Novice

Before origin 10 there was a nice feature called box art but its gone now in origin 10 I used that to find non origin games because of their small icons I want to see if thats an actual change or it will come back or not.

IKR? I got ME3's Deluxe edition of the game and i hated seeing the N7 logo on black background, like comeon - bring back the feature that allows me to put Femshep's cover variant on it.

I hate to revive a dead topic but it's now 2019 and I still see no option to add custom box art to games in the Origin Client. Seeing as how it's been 3 years, I'm guessing this is very low priority to EA. For some of us, though, it's a sorely missed feature. I don't have a single game in my Steam account without custom art and I was a little upset when I came back to play some Origin games and found the feature missing. I certainly won't be buying anything new through Origin until the feature returns.

Well it has been pased on to the team regularly for two and a half years now, I think it's safe to say that the team doesn't care.

That's a shame, without custom covers, my Origin library is the least appealing of all my game launchers. Result is that I simply don't like browsing it or even look at it, and I'm sure I'm far from being alone in that case.

Well, Its July 2019 and I'm back here to revive this dead topic because I just logged in to Origin for the first time in 14 months, sat through an update, and was immediately annoyed when I saw Male!Hawke staring at me. 

 

When will custom covers be returned? Why was this feature ever removed?
