The non-existent icons are the main feature of blackbox ;-)

In fact, gmc (gnome's file manager) cares about the icons. Blackbox
currently not fully co-operates with those icons, but will in the near
future, afaik. (New wm-spec).

For now, switch to another wm ;-)

Another very small, fast and yet powerful file manager you might consider
is ROX-Filer (rox.sourceforge.net). It features pinboard and even
desk-icons. I use it with blackbox, and i like it.
