Overlays for Just Chatting streams
On a Just Chatting stream your camera is the game. The overlay frames you, keeps chat readable and adds a few small things for viewers to watch or do, without crowding your face.
These picks are built around a warm room or a small café, with a webcam frame or a widget that gives regulars a reason to come back: a check-in card, a viewer counter, the song that's playing.
Where the widgets go
There is no game HUD here, so the layout is yours. Most camera-first streams put the webcam large and centered or slightly to one side, chat in a column on the other side, and small widgets like the viewer counter or Now Playing in the corners. Keep alerts above or beside your head, never over your face.

Questions
What matters most in a Just Chatting overlay?
A webcam frame that suits you, chat that is easy to read, and nothing covering your face. Everything else is extra.
Can I use a pack's webcam frame at a large size?
Yes. The frames are browser sources with a transparent center, so you can scale them to fit a large camera.
