You're running Ubuntu 10.04 probably, where not only were the icons removed, but that tab in Appearance Preferences was also removed to make it harder to get them back. In my opinion Gnome developers made the wrong decision; I don't think the extra tab made the interface too cluttered, and the settings were in a sensible place.

In any case, if you want a GUI to add them back in, then install InterfaceTab.
