Recently TheSURVIVR Upgraded the chat. Although most of those stuff were script imports to improve the user experience, he also used CSS to add images after staff names, insisting that they look good and will help identify staff.

However, the images are shifted up, and I personally don't want
 * 1) A random pointless image after my name
 * 2) Said images taking up space (cluttering the overall page)
 * 3) Them doing the same job that the pre-existing staff coloring in the chat did. He edited the chat welcome message to say images represent staff ranks and labeled them, however it could just as easily say that the pre-existing colors represent staff ranks and then label the colors.
 * 4) The images are off-center with the person's name and also too close to them (should be shifted to the right a little... probably could figure out how to do it though)

He and I could never come to an agreement and he reverted my removals of it, so here I am, holding a vote.

Proposal

 * 1) Remove the images from general staff styling
 * 2) Edit welcome message to say that the colors represent staff styling (Some users (aka me and maybe TheSURVIVR) have their color changed in the staff styling gadget, but if you don't have it enabled you would see the color named, and if you have it on you should know who we are anyways)
 * 3) Allow staff members to have an image after their name in the chat as part of their staff styling if they desire.
 * 4) Transfer images to a separate gadget

(for those who don't know, gadgets are features that you can enable in Special:Preferences)

This would remove the random images, while keeping the images for those who want it. If you want an image after staff members then you can have the gadget for it enabled, if you want a specific image for you and you are staff, it can be added to the staff gadget, and if you want an image for you and you aren't staff, talk to a staff member who knows how and they can supply you with code you can put in Special:MyPage/common.css (for this wiki) or w:Special:MyPage/global.css (for all wikis).
