Google play storelisting: You need fix your high-res icon. It is not a valid image

Okay, so while trying to upload my 512x512 app icon on google play, it comes up with the error: You need to fix your high-res icon. It is not a valid image.

I saw another post about this, but the solution was to save it in pain.net, which mine was created in! It is a png file, and fits the measurments:

enter image description here

Any ideas why it comes up with this error?

Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks.

Playstore says: 512 x 512 - 32-bit PNG (with alpha) In graphics, alpha means there should be background color. Playstore doesn't accept transparent icons. So solution is to make a background color of it. Another solution is convert it to JPEG.

I was able to upload my icon after "Saving for Web..." in Photoshop as a PNG24 with a transparent background. Uploading a PNG8 version produced the error you mentioned.
