Changing icons on desktop shortcuts

When I try to change the icons on some of the shortcuts I've placed on the
desktop (by using the properties tab), some of them "take" and some revert
back to the generic one (white background with computer screen image) no
matter how many times I try to change them.

Is this normal - are there restrictions based on the nature of the shortcut?
