Hi Ted; welcome to our Community!
There's a number of users that reported this to us recently and, to directly cut to the chase, you should be able to do this in v84.3.155 which is our most recent beta version:

Note that these builds are an early release feature and are subject to these additional terms.
Feel free to give it a try and report back TedC!

Hi,TedC I'm having the same problem, so I tried your suggestion and installed the software update/ beta version. All my custom icons are still missing... which is a pretty huge pain in the butt because we're talking about hundreds of files that I spent a lot of time organizing with custom icons. Any other ideas of something I could try? Also, suddenly this dialogue box has come up on my last couple of re-starts: Dropbox needs to change permissions for the FolderL/Users/[myname]/Dropbox??? I enter the password as prompted, but just not sure why it's suddenly happening and if it has anything to do with my icon issue.

Still does not support custom folder icons. A real deal breaker.
