Nice work by CuLT. But wasn't this the reason we got rid of rep in the first place? I thought the idea of 'Thanks' was that it'd remain private and anonymous. Thoughts? Ideas? Catpics?

It's just going to become the new e-penis.

Doesn't make a huge difference when the "thanks" button is more likely to be used in some threads/forums over others.

I'm a sucker for neatness.

I think it should look like this:

Where the link is a link to the "Search for all thanked posts".
