    Yes. That is the logo for cocos 2d (I believe it's some sort of game engine)

    I'm sure you don't have to have the program for this to happen.

    Also, it took me forever and a half to find which icons you were talking about :p I thought it was the Keith Lemon one, but then I was like, "Eh... I'm not sure." :eek:

    I wouldn't worry about it too much. Especially if the apps are still the same on your iDevice, I'm sure it's just a quirk of iTunes on the computer. I know the icons for iTunes can sometimes be different from the iOS versions.

    I've seen that. It's the standard icon for a game built on the cocos 2d engine. It's just a bug regarding the app icon.

    Yeah I think they fail to replace the icon at a certain resolution, so wherever that particular resolution is called for, the default icon is shown.

    There's also a tendency to cache images and such to make them load faster the next time. Might be just a carry over until it re-caches the image.

    OP, does completely exiting and reopening fix it?

    Nope, no fix. Same issue when syncing to iTunes on the laptop. (Win7) Screenshot above is on the PC (Win XP)

    I've had Banana Kong show up like that before. Right now, I get the correct graphic in iTunes for Banana Kong, but the Cocos logo for Dragon Island Blue. I seem to remember the latter game's pic showed up properly before.
