What you have there is a shell script, not a desktop application link. Which is why you can't change the icon, or place it in the panel, etc.
1) Move ~/Desktop/genj shell script to ~/bin or some other suitable location off the desktop. 2) In your ~/Desktop folder, right click and select Create New -> Link to Application 3) Under the 'Application' tab, next to 'Command', browse to where you moved the genj shell script to 4) Under the 'Advanced Options', check 'Run in terminal' 5) Fill in name, comments etc as you see fit
When when you click this file (it should show up on the desktop now too), genj should launch as before. But now if you open the properties of this file you will be able to change the icon via the methods already described. You should also be able to drag-n-drop this icon to the panel (with widgets unlocked) or anywhere else you want.
