2016-05-23 21:13:35 Michael Terry summary [Icons] Inconsistent tranparent app icon handling [Icons] Transparent app icon backgrounds look bad
2016-05-23 21:15:20 Michael Terry description I uploaded an app with an icon that had a transparent background. The Ubuntu Store scope renders it with a white background. The dash renders it transparent. The launcher renders it transparent. I think the Store is doing the right thing. But any solution is fine, as long as it is consistent. I uploaded an app with an icon that had a transparent background. In the dash, the wallpaper is visible behind the icon. And in the launcher, the icon is presented on a dark background, making it look very different than the dash with its white background. Neither looks great, and makes the shell look a little janky. Obviously, the app author should just fix their icon. But if they DO give us a bad icon, we should fix it for them, else we look bad too.
