It happened on a fresh login for all categories in the software store on 16.04. I upgraded my 16.04 machine to 17.10, but I could wipe the OS partition and reinstall 16.04 this weekend to test if the software store still has the same problem with displaying categories.

I attached a screenshot of the Photography category in the Ubuntu 16.04 Software store. The other categories are similarly non- functional. As you can see, there are only ellipses where there should be icons and descriptive text for each of the photography applications. Clicking on the items doesn't do anything.
