I have several games on gog.com, and several others on Steam. This requires me to run gog games in a manager like Lutris, and obviously Steam games in Steam. I have not tried adding a game managed by Lutris to Steam library as I don t currently have Lutris installed, but I m not even sure that would work, and seems like that could be problematic if it did. I m wondering if anyone has tried this. Can I add a game managed by Lutris to the Steam library, and run game through Steam? And would that necessitate Lutris remain installed on system?
It’s much better idea to add your steam games to lutris, and launch everything from there, use it just as launcher.
I just didn t want multiple game managers install on system, but I don t see a way around it.
Well you can’t play steam games without steam…unless… 
So there’s that.
I guess you technically can add wine prefixes specifically to Steam, but you’ll be forced to launch them with Poroton and alter a lot of internal settings…It’s just a bad idea in my view, compared to just adding them to Lutris and use only that as a launcher, because you can add any possible source there and play games from one place…Custom prefixes, Steam, Gog, Humble, Epic, Origin, Emulators - you name it.
I prefer to think of Steam more as a source, than anything else…
You can if you right click on a game on lutris “create steam shortcut”. Steam need to be relaunched for it to appear in the library.
For adding pictures you can use a tool like https://github.com/SteamGridDB/steam-rom-manager

After thinking about it I want to try your idea. I have a feeling though that I will have to re install the steam games I currently have on computer now. I guess I need to find where the game save files are for a few games. Anyway, should I keep Steam installed? It seems like I should remove it all, and Start over with Lutris.
Why?! 
Just import existing games to the launcher, you don’t have to touch anything.
It’s as easy as
- Launch Lutris
- Go to left panel Sources → Steam press Reload button to the right (looks like refresh icon)
