Why do my files have a grey X on the desktop app?
On my computer files all of my dropbox pictures are just blue with a X in left corner, how do get my pictures back?

It seems that you're experiencing the issue at the bottom of this article on your device.
Keep in mind that this isn't a Dropbox related icon, and it's most likely linked to a third-party app.
Do you have any other cloud providers running on your machine?
This will help me to assist further!
