I like the smile, like previously mentioned it is universal or the thumbs up especially if you could incorporate a thumb icon. My two cents worth. ---
Where to next?

[QUOTE ANDY}A short guesture of "I like what you are doing!". That activity could show up in the members profile to indicate the others that for example andy high-fives what marianne does.{END QUOTE}
suggeston:
look-at-this
it shows up in the members profile like :
Andy look-at-this for Amanda
or (with apostrophe, grammatically more correct)
Andy's look-at-this for Amanda ---

A common internet term for this type of response is "poke" As in "Andreas has just Poked you". This is the terminology used by facebook as you are probably aware. ---

Hi everybody,
thank you for all your replies. I agree with mariannes "poke" comment. A nice word, but already taken. Thumbs up could be one, but then we do have the guides that also have thumbs. Personally I right now favour the "smile" - Send a smile to Kerrie -. Could also hold as an icon with a smilie. Internationally recogniced and friendly.
Feedback?
Best regards,
andy

Reading though all of this creative stuff, Sabines "send-a-smile" button and Bertison's "send-a-poke" button should be great on all profile pages for either good or bad contributions. The other options are great too specially "bravo", "cheer", "hug", "high5", "Bravo" and "thumbs"...."
[Info: other websites limit such quick one-click-comments to 5-10 per member per day] RR ---

Hi Andy

I thought at the beginning that you wanted something that would cover both 'good' and 'bad,' but we seemed to drift into good only. In Rudi's message quoted above I can's agree that sending a cheer would be appropriate for less favourable messages but I think 'send a poke' is as good as we can get.
Personally I think it is quite important that it should be good for either and I hope you will settle for this.
Also it does have the virtue Marianne wanted of avoiding copy-catting.
Cheers
