Problem/Motivation

The media upload widget as repetitive text, unneeded buttons and is rather bulky.

Proposed resolution

  • Decrease the size of the initial, empty preview
  • Remove redundant text
  • Hide the "Attach" button

I tested #5 with a local Commons site and verified that adding Media continued to work properly with all of the styling improvements.
