Change alias icon on desktop

I created a shortcut on the Mac desktop to start VM, but I got an icon that is similar to a white sheet of paper with an arrow on the bottom left corner, instead of a blue cube with the arrow (as I got on my Mac in office).
The shortcut works, but I'd prefer the blue icon ...
Is there a way to change this icon?

And would it be possible to have the shortcut in the Dock and not on the desktop?


VB 4.1.18 ext pack installed, Mac OS X 10.7.4 updated

Right click the icon and then properties. You can change the icon there (well at least on Windows and Linux). These have been changed to mimetype so it may be that the VirtualBox DEVs needs to see this issue to fix it. Consider posting this question to bugtracker
