I just discovered today, that what I thought was the 'like' button was not. I was hitting the 'like' to the left, not the bottom right.
So if you feel like I overlooked your latest, my apologies.
I have seen some beautiful projects of late, but I was hitting the wrong button!
I think they are both options - one goes as a "thanks for this post" and the other counts as a like or heart on the front page. I don't think either is wrong - the option on the right just became available a couple of months ago. :)
The great thing about the Like feature is you can go back to it to find a great tut instead of having to search for it! I didn't see the value in it until I figured that out. lol
There's also the FB thanks thumbs up right under the topic name on the upper left - just to add some confusion in ;)
:icon_rolleyes: You can???!!! ho lee chit I learn daily... I "like" now that I saw that pop up, but before it was only posting Thanks and I'm with you Sue, I LOVE seeing all the creations flowing out - Wish they would flow more out of ME :-)
So how can you find a tut by "liking" it?? Look at what you hit like for? ohhh come on Lori I'm hanging by the seat of my chair :lol:
lol go to your profile and it will show how many likes you got and how many you gave. All the subject titles will be there.
I have messed up quite a bit too! I'm still learning this site. But, I do LIKE it! LOL
I like your likes.
I just discovered that LIKE option while reading this...I've seen hearts on my posts but I didn't know how they got there. I'm sure there are some shortcuts on this site that I haven't discovered yet...perhaps if I went and read the "how to use this site" forum I would figure some stuff out.
Well, I know for a fact that you like ALL of my stuff Chica! :icon_hi:
So, if you use the FB thumbs up, does it post something on FB also?
I think I just figured it out, it posts you liked something in your feed. Right? I have FB, but am far from proficient with it.
I think so, and truthfully, that is a tad scary to me. Or maybe I'm just a scardy cat. The vast majority of posts on here are quilt related, but we do have our share of personal issues that are discussed as well, and I'm not sure I'd want those to be a shareable item on FB. Do you know what I mean? After all, what we put on here is almost between "family."

It is all indexed and searchable by Google, and no one has to be signed in or be a member to see posts, photos, etc. Anything posted here is publicly view-able on the internet.
I am not saying that to be a pain in the butt or make you paranoid! :) I just wanted to make sure you knew that things posted here can be seen by anyone.

Yes, I do realize that. Times have certainly changed, and even masking doesn't work well anymore. It would be nice to go back to simpler times, yes? Wishful thinking..... I took a management information system during my last semester as an MBA student, and the internet has almost become too sophisticated. :(Quote:

TWO?
What gives?
I'd like to be given credit for my 'likes'. HA!
And I surely didn't know I was so likable....
This adds a whole new layer to the forum!
Sue, ROFL:icon_rofl::icon_rofl::icon_rofl::icon_rofl: too funny. Don't worry, I've given you "like" credits in my heart.Quote:
