Several problems with icons during Chrome Extension development

Question

It\'s very strange.

1 problem

If I add this icon declaration to my manifest:

\"icons\": {
    \"16\": \"images/icon16.png\",
    \"48\": \         


        

Answer 1

1. Close the chrome://extensions/ tab, and re-open it. This may fix the issue (I've experienced this bug a couple of times)

2. On the details page, only icons of apps are fully shown. All extensions are displayed within a puzzle in the Chrome Web Store.

   If you want to get a different picture at the search results, upload a promotional image at the dashboard. See this answer for details.
