Transparent backgrounds should be avoided for application icons cause the result looks very awkward once the Ubuntu shape and the shadow are applied.
Please try to design something consistent with the core app icons (our icon guidelines can help).

Title:
  [Icons] Inconsistent tranparent app icon handling

Status in Ubuntu UX:
  Triaged
Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug 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.
