Woah, this is going to be great - about to go and add it to my game now 
Edit:
This looks pretty cool.

There’s a problem, isn’t there someway to set it by grabbing the decal? Because subtracting the number takes longer since Roblox is trying to patch it cause users are stealing other user’s clothing.
Decal IDs are different from image IDs. You can get the image ID by finding the image you want in the toolbox, and then right-clicking on it and choosing the “copy image URL” option. Subtracting numbers from the decal ID until you find the image ID isn’t really feasible anymore.

I found two other ways of doing this easily with an extension, and another way by doing it VIA studio:
-
BTRoblox: Find it VIA Chrome store, you can see it here > Find the decal, click from your images on the create page to be directed to the decal page > You’ll see an image button on the top right area (as seen here) > Click the image button, it will take you directly to the page where your image is (as seen here)
-
Studio: Workspace > + > Decal > Properties > Paste in your decal ID > Wait a second, you’ll notice the ID changes > Your ID will then be converted to the image asset ID, just copy it from the decal properties and you’ll find it. Gyazo Preview
I personally use BTRoblox for multiple things, it has many benefits including being able to view model sources from the site including scripts.
The second one is practically pointless, it’s much easier doing it the way mentioned by ChipioIndustries.

Love this! However I am having a problem. The image does not appear in chat and I am getting this error in output;
19:39:27.941 - Mesh Manager: http request failed, contentid: 'rbxassetid://4342232872', exception: HTTP 403 (Forbidden)
I don’t know why, does somebody know how I can fix this?
sorry
just read the discussion, I was using the decal id, not image.
How did u set it in the ExtraDataInitializer?
I got it working. I don’t really understand the question, but it was because I was using the decal id, not the image id
Alright, I mean’t that too my bad.
Any idea what i have done here?
https://gyazo.com/b77a0c57d57004d586fb9de5efc080cc
should only show 1.
Afraid I can’t help ya much without being able to see your code. Try adding print statements in various spots to figure out what might be going wrong.

I copied the code exactly as it said.
I worked out why it is putting the image twice but any idea why it is in the middle of my name?
I believe it is where the icons are added to the player.
How would i fix this (i used your code exactly as you typed it)
This is quite an interesting idea. You could show in-game clans and much more like real moderators instead of 9-year olds pretending to be mods.
Great! Now I can add this free model to my camping game 
I can’t help you fix your script if you won’t provide it. If your code isn’t functioning the same way as mine, there must be a mistake somewhere. Try just using the free model and seeing if that works.

So how would I add to the icons a roblox admin icon for example?

The lines of code i'm trying to add it to is this one:
```Players={
{
UserId= 2964877,94643687,42111501,1146407844,
Icons= {"rbxasset://textures/ui/PlayerList/AdminIcon.png"},
}```
(also sorry for the red and stuff i've tried fixing it)

If you’re asking how to add an icon for Roblox admins, you would add another entry to the Groups section of SpecialChatIcons using the admins group:
local SpecialChatIcons = {
Groups = {
{
GroupId = 1200769;
Icons = {}; --icon here
}
}
}

Alrighty, thanks! I’ll try that later.
How would I give players the Admin icon by UserId?
EXAMPLE:
UserId = 1,
Icon = {0},
Yeah, that’s how you’d do it. Just add it as an entry to the Players section of SpecialChatIcons.
