How to add icon for different file type in sublime 2

I want to switch my text editor to Sublime text 2 but the only issue cant let me do it.

I work with big projects and need very quick to navigate between files. ST2 sidebar doesnt support icon packs on such files .css, .html, ,php, .js etc. I found some article where the one guy explains how to do that - https://sublimetext.userecho.com/topic/19274-theming-of-the-sidebar/ I tried it but nothing happens. I tried do changes on the user-settings file. I suppose I do something wrong

enter image description here

If somebody knows how to do this please help

For ST3 users. Adding icons for different file types and folders to default theme:

  1. Download archive with icons. Or this one.
  2. Go to Preferences > Browse Packages (In Windows find the Browse packages button to open the packages folder)
  3. Copy(extract) folder from archive to packages folder. If you already have a Theme - Default folder then just merge them.
  4. Done. Thanks to Xavi Esteve

2023 UPDATE:

There is FileIcons you can install to get different file icons depending on file extension

The newest stable version of Sublime Text 3 has sidebar themeing and many themes (not colour schemes) have added support for custom icons.

So upgrade to this: http://www.sublimetext.com/3

and then either use the default theme, or something like Soda theme to get custom sidebar icons.
