Vote Symbols[1] (source) is a script that displays symbols next to users' votes, !votes, and closes. Adding symbols next to votes helps distinguish them quickly, through their different colors.
Now optimized for high-resolution displays!
History of voting symbols
There used to be templates one could use to put symbols next to their !votes in discussions. However, these were deleted as a result of many, many, many, many deletion discussions and DRVs (I might have missed a few), leading to the salting of {{support}}, {{oppose}}, and similar templates.
To bring back this feature, a script was written by Ais523 in 2006. This is an update to that script which adds more icons and votes and takes out a couple of less useful votes that generate frequent false positives.
Installation
To install it, copy and paste this code into your common.js page:
