You have exactly the same ability if you but think

Right, I'm going through all 21,000+ posts you've ever made and adding 'Like' to them all unless you tell where to drop the IMG tags.

It's Sunday, thinking doesn't come easy.

Steve if you fancy downloading and zipping them, email them over and I'll upload them, I'm pretty sure they're copyright free. If not I'll have a go later this week.

I'll give it a go Matt, I'm not exactly busy at the moment

I am in favour of the like button.

Lots of posts I approve of but don’t feel it’s going to add to the thread to post “Gosh that’s rather spiffing”.

A like button does not stop people posting a more specific thank you or appreciative comment.

I think it's partly down to being considerate of the post's tone, if it's asking for input and it's liked, that's a bit offputting, but if it's a statement and it's liked that's encouraging and we're agreeing. I think that if we keep the like system we just need to use it conscientiously and that's going to be the hard thing.

We'll see how it goes, I'm in the camp of it being an easy option, but on the other hand I'm conscious that I don't reply to a number of threads/posts that I have thoughts on, or just agree with the poster, or think it's a good post, with the like at least I would have some positive input that could contribute a lot more than nothing...

My Page style has reverted back to the XenForo style, and the default style option is gone.Is this permanent? I like the new style, but prefered the default style.

+1 I wasn't crazy about the default style, but found it easier to read than the XenForo, especially since the current colour scheme has the same colour for new posts as for people without avatars. Call me dyslexic, but I find the current format visually confusing and harder to read.

Well done on the little faces!:bigok::beerchug:goodjob

I'm looking into options at the moment but having two seperate styles means I need to edit and configure everything twice is becoming quite unwieldy. For the time being I'm going to have to stick to this template only until I work something else out.

I find this very clear to read, to use, and to work my way through.
I didn't change anything, thinking that I'd just work open mindedly about all of the new stuff and see how things went.

I agree with Toddy (decided not to just 'like' :) ) I think this is very clear.

The only thing that I would suggest (and this is not getting at anyone in particular) is that you limit the amount of space you give to people for their own 'messages and quotes' at the bottom of their posts - it wastes so much space on the screen which could be filled with the next post!

One other thing (OK, so the above wasn't the only thing :) ), Mr Fenna is a fine figure of a man but could we have a more welcoming 'home' screen some time please? - no rush, just when you have a spare moment between 2:00 and 3:00 in the morning :)

Cheers,
Broch

Despit my deep seated vanity I have to agree with all this....
