Alfresco: Finding out the type of a piece of content

When I log into http://localhost:8080/alfresco I can navigate to a folder and see four content items. So far so good. But there is no indication as to what the type is of each content type, except for a PDF icon.

Is there a way for me to specify an icon for my custom content types?

I would like the icon to be dependent on my custom type.

<types>
    <type name="sc:doc">
        <title>Someco Content</title>
        <parent>cm:content</parent>
        <icon>boring-icon.png</icon>            <-- something like this
    </type>
    <type name="sc:marketingDoc">
        <title>Marketing Document</title>
        <parent>bnp:doc</parent>
        <icon>fancy-marketing-icon.png</icon>    <-- something like this
    </type>
</types>

If it matters, I am using Alfresco 3.3 (Enterprise).

Take a look here http://docs.alfresco.com/3.4/tasks/kb-code-explorer-add.html e.g. web-client-config-custom.xml (sc:marketingDocis the Alfresco content type):

   <!-- Specify icon for the kb:document instances -->
   <config evaluator="string-compare" condition="sc:marketingDoc icons">
      <icons>
         <icon name="sc_marketingDoc-icon" path="/images/icons/your_custom_icon.gif" />
      </icons>
   </config>

Are you informed, that Alfresco Explorer is deprecated & you should use Share instead?
