Likes

The design of the Likes started in 2012 and followed the evolution on the social networks, in particular Facebook.

Resume:

  1. Until mid 2015: Thumbs were in the classic original design, thumbs with contours.
  2. Until spring 2016: Thumbs became more graphical, one color.
  3. Spring 2016: Facebook expanded the Like system by "reactions"

This evolution is well visible in the evolution of the design of toctoc_comments Like-system as well.

  1. Have Thumbs with contours:
theme.themeVersion = 1
  1. Graphical Thumbs
theme.themeVersion = 2
  1. emoLikes (like Facebook-reactions)
ratings.emoLike = 1
