You don't need to restart anything
Did you put openfile in /usr/bin?
Did you get an error if you run "openfile" in x-term?
Check permissions: "chmod +x /usr/bin/openfile"
When testing what you just wrote i get
sh: openfile: Permission denied
and with chmod i get operation not permitted.
I am lost when it comes to terminal stuff, so what am I doing wrong here?

install rootsh from app manager
then when you open terminal type root to gain root access
warnings about being root go here
then you can do the chmod +x command

Open x-term and type:
sudo gainroot
chmod +x /usr/bin/openfile
sudo gainroot
chmod +x /usr/bin/openfile

The file is named img.desktop (no other fileextension like txt or anything)
Path and pic is correct and exists
[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Version=0.13
Type=Application
Name=Image
Exec=openfile '/home/user/MyDocs/.images/Sketch/Face.jpg'
Icon=general_image
EDIT: Funny thing, when i typed openfile '/home/user/MyDocs/.images/Sketch/Face.jpg' into the desktop command execution widget it actually opens the image viewer, its blank and says file format not supported. Weird. The file works when opening it through filebox.

Yep, that's weird. The binary uses exactly the same code as filebox.
What you get if you try openfile '/home/user/MyDocs/.images/Sketch/Face.jpg' in xterm?
Did you try another image?

Check permissions: "chmod +x /usr/bin/openfile"
