...uhm, here: http://vanillaforums.org/addon/categoryimageheader-plugin. This is for category headers though, but it can be rewritten to work in other places too.

Another possible solution is using CSS, if you want to add an icon to the sidepanel:

.PanelCategories a[href*="some-category"] {
    // Add your icon here using the background-image,
    // background-position and padding properties
}

This utilizes the CSS attribute selector to select the link that contains a specific category in its href attribute. You can edit it to include other elements than the sidepanel though.
