In the beginning I unchecked "My Pictures" so it wouldn't show on the
desktop. Unfortunately, I don't remember where I did that. Would
some kind soul please remind me where that is so I can undo it? TIA

Create a shortcut to the folder; right-click the folder, hover over
"Send To", click "Desktop (create shortcut)".

Re: restore icon
By default there isn't an option for My Pictures on the Desktop. On the
Start Menu, yes.

Thanks, Kelly.... but it's not there. I simply do *not* remember how
I made it disappear, but I did it on purpose. Can you give me a path
to it or better yet, take an educated guess at where I unchecked it so
that I can recheck it?

Re: restore icon
You can use Send To Desktop/Create shortcut. As I stated, this is not a
native folder for the desktop. The start menu, yes.
