The like button doesn't seem to grab much attention, and I felt it was a simple way to build comradely in the community. I'd suggest making it more attention-grabbing in appearance, or moving it somewhere it doesn't blend in as much. The presentation for how many likes a post has received also blends in a bit too much.
What do you guys think of the like button? Do you agree? Have any additional suggestions?

Yeah, that's a good idea. Even a colour change to the Like button to make it more prominent would help. I did like the way it was handled on BSN Prime.

I agree! I also wonder if we can have our likes tallied, as in BSN prime.

Yea, I think simply making the color change to white or some other stand out color would be better. However, it didn't take long to find so I don't know.

Also, another thing about the likes...
Can we track them? I mean is there history where all the f... *oops force of habit* LIKES, likes i've given, like we had on BSN Prime can be checked? Back there i used it for contextual bookmarking among other things (as opposed to boomarking or following) but here can't seem to find it... Hopefully i'm just being dumb againand it's right there, somewhere

I've gone ahead and turned into a sort of greyish/white to see how that works out.

I've gone ahead and turned into a sort of greyish/white to see how that works out. It definitely stands out better - thanks! Though I feel the colour it becomes after you click it is a little too close to the "pre-clicked" colour. Would it be possible to make it a shade or two darker/different to distinguish them a little more?

I'm gonna miss my sweet sweet validation like count from BSN. Would like something similar here, Cyonan pls There are ways to enable this, where you have a like counter below your avatar like post count, though it will either require a bit of HTML tinkering, or a theme with the code already built-in. I believe you'll need to go to Themes > Layout Templates from the Admin panel and edit the Mini-Profile section.

To my mind if a button goes a nice gentle green that's an association in my head that it's been clicked. Don't know what the colour options are in the back end.

What about likes counter (not sure if I used the right word)-- the thing that shows who liked your post? I'm kinda used to having the likes counter in the right bottom corner of a post. Is there any way to move it there?

I have access to the HTML and CSS editors so I can do basically anything from a style point of view. but I agree so I changed it to a green.
