Hi Bret,
Please find new placeholder icon attached in SVG format along with a
visual reference so you can see it in situ. I ran it past head of brand
yesterday and he is happy to use this 'app store' icon as the
replacement placeholder icon.
Thanks.

Bug description:
Currently, MyApps and CPI are using the "placeholder-app-icon.png"
from the Suru theme, which is a basic greyscale image, including a
version of the Ubuntu logo. Showing this logo as the app icon for apps
which have no icon, implies they are officially supported apps by
Ubuntu, and dilutes the brand and trademark, when they are not
actually such apps, particularly when they have no function directly
linked to any part of Ubuntu.
Instead, a better representation would be a generic representation of
an app window or similar.
