Welcome to AskUbuntu. Could you elaborate some more on your question, please? The icon is missing from where? – NlightNFotis Aug 31 '12 at 11:59

It looks like your Dropbox preferences have not been set to: "Start Dropbox on system startup".

If you check that selection, once your system starts, Dropbox will be loaded when Ubuntu starts up, and you will be able to see the Dropbox icon in tray.

Quick check: Try starting Dropbox manually. If you manage to do, you will be able to see the icon in tray for now.

Be sure to check the above option, for if you fail to do so, the tray icon will not be persist after a reboot, unless of course you manually open Dropbox each time after the computer has started.
