Not bad. Except the pulsating heart. I was in the habit of inserting a heart next to a name of fave beauties, but I wanted it to be sweet. All that pulsating makes it inappropriately aggressive (as if i were a dirty old man). At least this one is less so that the one we have. Reminds me of Pinkerton waiting breathlessly to get his hands all over Cio-Cio-San.

After the holidays and over the next few weeks Lomm will do some research to see how we can integrate a like button into the forums. It is a one-man tech crew so as time allows he will see what he can find. Hang in there.

If there is a Like button, there should also be Dislike or Disagree button, as well as the Confused button that TCM used.
But, my opinion still remains: We don't need no stinking buttons.

There should not be a 'Dislike" or "Disagree" button.

I agree that the "Like" is not needed, but under no circumstances should there be a "Dislike" button.

With a dislike button there could be a strain of unresolved resentment. To press a dislike button is to hit and run.

movieman1957,

Thank you for the update!

Again I totally understand about the SSO relying on a "one-man tech crew." Here are some phpBB community discussions and resources that, I hope, will be useful to Lomm:

Just popping in here to reiterate what movieman1957 posted earlier in the thread. Lomm is definitely looking into the issue to see how we can best integrate the 'like button' feature. Thank you all for your input, and many thanks to Lomm. :smiley_clap:

And with that, locking this poll thread as well. All that needs to be said has been said, and then some. I'll get to this as soon as I have some free time.
