I'm going to forego negative reactions or reactions with negative connotations.
I understand, but can't you leave the possibility for the maintainer to choose between the reactions that give points (positive) and the reactions that remove points (negative)? I think some negative behaviors (eg, users who ignore netiquette) could be "punished" by forum users (not just by the moderators). Just a suggestion.
Anyone is free to use this, if they ever do a reactions plugin
thx. nice.
@Todd mentioned in another discussion:
I do urge you to make your own flavour of reactions .... If you recall the recent uproar over mega6382 and his themes it seems to me like you guys really don't like complete knock-offs right?
I agree with Todd. I'm going to pm Todd. and see what is ethical and what is not.
if we used Tama's workup and font-awesome icons and placed them in the same area as Social reactions, without using any of your sprites but using Hijack class and obviously different coding for sql. Would that be stepping over the line in terms of knockoffs? or is the functionality idea (clicking on 3 similar reactions, giving points, and showing who clicked) the ethical violation.

Fixed them so they are the same size xd ( and fixed again )
Edit: also this might be a big ask, but could locale definitions be used in the plugin - so users can edit the reactions to whatever they want, without having to fiddle with code all too much.
wow is a car in firefox, wow is a star in gogle chrome.
funny image - I may have something wrong.
Yeah I changed wow to a star, as it was easier to make it more consistent. I'll take a look at firefox ( cross browser hacks suck ).
Edit: Seems to be working in firefox fine, I pushed a commit to fix the padding for the funny reaction ( did that for IE as well ).
@peregrine : bearing in mind that the demo relys on a html skeleton ( not the actual hooked plugin ), are you able to pm a copy of the plugin with just the reactions rendered ?
Edit : CSS now works back to ie8, and 2 versions back of firefox ( also works on chrome)
@peregirne: If ok then let us know how much you are targeting for, and how much got donated. This will help to describe the value in there and make that process more visible to all of us.

Remember font awesome can be used as a font on the pc, you just need to do some trickery to get the ascii up ( use word or something to insert it as a symbol, and then copy it to an image editor ).
Wouldn't it just be easier to let the user decide what reactions they want, so it can fit in better with that forum? Custom icon upload? Anyways, I would love an "awesome" reaction.

Indeed
Tested a bit with font-awesome, although the "lol" reaction is a little borked. The concept works:

@phreak
thx. no answer for your other question. But I'm hoping people specify $amounts.
@tama
I think I will just go with png file for the icons for the time being.
e.g.

This would be a great asset to the community.
I pledge $50 in hopes others will join me!
I have to express my distaste for using fonts as icons in this use case.

Click on insightful, awesome, and funny reactions to thank community volunteers for their valuable posts.
I agree with your sentiments on the font and it is slower loading than a small image as far as I can see (at least the font-awesome is).

I have an idea , to add specific role reactions. Sort of like reactions only available to certain people like mods or vets.
So only those people could give and see that reaction. Kind of like the way the promote button works here.
If I had a personal reaction it would be a "Slap" hehehe
some people need one ....
