Okay, so I'm all new to Steamgifts and I'm about to create my first giveaway but I'm wondering how do you guys choose how long a giveaway should last?

It really depends, but mostly I make short ones.

Depends entirely on what you want to do, because you'll have plenty of time to send the game after the giveaway is done. Oh, and always wait until the last minute to send the game, right before they can mark it as not received.

Why? That sounds rather unfair...

My public ones last mostly a day or two. Sometimes I do a 3-4 hour giveaway. In groups my giveaways last like 5-7 days so everyone who wants can enter.

Thanks everyone! 1-2 days does sound reasonable.
And no worries, I won't be waiting until the last minute to send the gift to the winner.

Welcome :3
If you haven't already, be sure to read this.
And I choose time for my giveaways depends on what I'm doing them for. If I need some more CV to enter CV giveaway I can't enter, then I set the time 1hr :D If I'm doing a group giveaway, 2-3 days.

First thing I did was read the FAQ/Rules!

Giveaway is created and already two entries so I must have done something right. :P

The question wasn't "where to set" but "how much time". But it has been answered and the giveaway created. Thanks anyway.
