    Thought you had that sorted about 10 posts back?
    Does an E2 restart help?
    Can you take a screenshot of your /picon folder?
    Have you removed all other /media/ device type / picon folders?

    Something not right so.
    What picon pack are you currently using?
    If you ftp or telnet into the box, are they listed by reference number or channel name in /picon root folder?

    im not sure what picon pack im using I downloaded it when I first got the box and I cannot seem to find out what pack it is, its been working perfectly fine

    but once I moved it into flash it stopped appearing for each channel

    I just moved the picon folder back to media/usb and they appear again

    yes all the channels are listed by reference number

    Thought you didn't have a USB stick mounted?
    I'd remove all picon folders & start from sratch.

    I'd guess your /etc/enigma2/settings is now messed up with picon location, maybe restored settings with drives previously used no longer attached?
    Fresh flash of current build will fix the issue.

    I cannot fresh flash I as I will lose everthing if I did that

    I only moved them back to get them working again and they are working perfectly fine in MEDIA/USB

    soon as I put them on the root they don't appear

    iv just found something ,

    my picons are also installed on /usr/share/enigma2/picon - could this be the reason they are not showing when I move them from /media/usb/picon to /

    Since you are not prepared to do a fresh flash and by this are ignoring @judge his good advice, I suggest you just keep on messing around with your clearly messed up install, until you have wasted some more time of those trying to help you and yourself, before realizing it should be a good idea to start from scratch.

    PS: Although it is one of the smallest printscreens I have seen in a long time, who still uses 800x450 screens? It sure are some strange names that your picons seem to have.
