SUMMARY
Sorry for just complaining when I'm not an artist and can't supply anything
else! But:

I was looking in Discover, and the Kickoff menu, and admiring all the app
category icons. I think they're all great, *except* for the Graphics category
icon. I've zoomed into it, and still have no idea what it's supposed to be.
Maybe it should be a paintbrush icon, or something else easily recognisable?

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Run Discover
2. Look at the categories down the left-hand side
3. Admire the icons in general
4. Look at the icon for Graphics

OBSERVED RESULT
A blob with a sharp point in the upper-left?

EXPECTED RESULT
Something that screams "graphics" at the average user, e.g. a paintbrush, or a
tablet stylus.
