Q:

How to add icon and screenshot for my app .deb package to see it in Ubuntu Software Center?

I created a .deb package of application by myself and I want to add to it icon and screenshot to visualize it in Application Manager such as Ubuntu Software Center. When I launch my package by double-click. For example, when I launch virtualbox or skype packages their icon and  screenshot appear. How can I make this? Is it possible?

A:

There are two questions here, the first is about the icon; this is actually provided by the app data package which has a pre-set number of defined icons. You can find it in:
/usr/share/app-install/icons/

But it won't help you put an icon in the software center. No custom packages have icons in the software center.
The second is about the screenshot. These can be added here:
