I updated Firefox and now the logos on some of my bookmarks and tabs are blank, dotted line squares.

If you go to the site, do they actually have a favicon, or did you create them in you bookmarks with the help of an extension because you didn't like non descriptive bookmark icons and folder icons.
Did you lose them in the bookmarks sidebar("Ctrl+B")
On the toolbar for the Bookmarks toolbar, I display only text and try to key most of them to 1-2 letters (or 1 non-letter character) for those that appear directly on the toolbar. Most are in folders there.

I had just answered this elsewhere 1/2 hour ago but couldn't find it.
The was another answer there that suggested to Restart Firefox, good but you had them for a long time so I hadn't mentioned it.
You basically have to use them again sometimes, but I've not seen them disappear. Since they are stored both as a bitmap and reference to the web page favicon it seems that they would not be deleted.
I don't really have total recall that I could remember exact working and retype consistently -- but I do have and extension to help me when this site drops what I typed if I go to another page using same tab and come back. I could have searched on content or title (or mess it up again trying and restore like I just did again for the second time).
