Nope, nada what I be poking at ;-)

Open nautilus.
Select filesystem in LH pane.
Go to /usr/share/icons/whatever/whatever (sorry, don't have a linux
box in front of me at the moment).
Pick an icon to represent what you want to show in the launcher.
I see you're using gedit to launch a reminder app or note. So pick
either a gedit icon or one of the note/reminder icons.

So for an example (insert the correct path once you've chosen an
icon), the above line should read:

Icon[en_US]=/usr/share/icons/[eg]Clarity/apps/48/gedit.png
