No, the pinned apps don't have an icon because you know they are pinned (since they are in the main menu).

The setting is called "Pin_bitmap". Not all skins have it because by default the menu uses the icon from imageres.dll.
Look at the Metro and Midnight skins for examples.

It would still be nice if the pinned area had some label at the top that said "Pinned" and the other "Recent" or "Frequent".

It would instantly tell the user and anyone trying to assist him:
- What list he has enabled - Recent or Frequent
- Whether pinned is on top or recent/frequent is on top.

Labels help a lot.
