Personalized Icons in Gnome-Do

I really like Gnome-Do, but a thing that bugged me was the inability to create an button with a personalized icon.

However, a ... erm... simple/clever/idiot/what-the-hell workaround to do it is:

1. Remove the item from your dock if its already on there
2. Add your costumized icon to the Menus (right click on Applications Menu, Edit Menus)
   
3. Drag the launcher into the desktop
4. Restart gnome-do
5. Ops, the icon is not set properly! Remove it from docky
6. Drag the icon from the Applications Menu to docky
7. Restart gnome-do
8. Celebrate your brand new personalized icon! :)
   

I followed him but had to improve a bit ;)
