Description
Adding a mod icon fails silently if the Resources folder doesn't exist for said mod. The only indication of this happening is the following line in the logs:
LogSlate: Warning: OnExternalImagePicked.Execute failed : D:/SatisfactoryModLoader/Mods/RedSoloCup/solololo.png, D:/SatisfactoryModLoader/Mods/RedSoloCup/Resources/Icon128.png
Suggested fix: automatically create the folder if it doesn't exist.

Research direction
Start in Alpakit's mod-icon selection flow and reproduce the failure with a mod that lacks a Resources folder. Check the logged source and destination paths, then verify that selecting an icon creates the folder and writes the icon without the silent failure.
