Glad to hear it's sorted now for you Archeowebby - thanks for keeping me in the loop too.
As for you now Justin_S, it looks like you're on the updated version of the desktop app for Mac OS so you might need to make the files with no icons online only and then local (available offline).
Let me know if this helps!

Hi Walter,
I misread your note and made everything "available offline" first. After doing so, though, the icons are now working as expected.
Many thanks for the great help!
On a side note. I was also no longer seeing "Dropbox" under "Locations" in the finder's sidebar. Checking the "Cloud Storage" option under the sidebar tab in finder settings corrected the issue.
