Replace the "broken" image file used when a listing doesn't have an image with something else

[EchterAgo]

When a listing does not have an image file an icon that seems to imply a broken image is used. When I see this it always makes me wonder if there is a problem with my internet connection or the website on first sight. It takes me a few milliseconds to remember that it means "no image" instead of "broken image", even though I work on the site regularly. Other users might not even realize that this does mean no image. We should consider replacing that with either a better symbol or even omitting the image circle completely for these listings.

Another issue is that the icon used is an exact copy of the icon that Internet Explorer used to indicate a broken image, so there might be licensing problems with this.

I would prefer omitting the circle and not displaying anything there.

it throws off the spacing. I guess we can do it though, I believe we can just use an empty gray image like we do for the lazyload for missing ones if that would be better without much code change?

Adding style="visibility: hidden;" to the img tag where we have no image hides it without messing with the layout. I think an empty image would be better than what we have now, but it might also be seen as problems with the connection or the site. I'll check if I can come up with a symbol.

Maybe something like this would work: https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcSCeF2uQzXx4W9agnCd5caOiBGM3QxH9QLIrqJB14LlGhb-Xu08

One of these might also work.
