I guess i prefer the thanks
as its shows how many thanks and who thanked...
Better IMHO
agreed, the "thanks" button is a heads up display and gives stats vs. just a bar graph. would be a nice add on to a great site!

Eventually you will get more and more rep "pips" the more rep comments you get. So you got this now
eventually you get more....
and so on...
to view rep comments left FOR YOU from others, just click the "user cp" up there in the navigation. on the first page you hit the comments will be listed there.

The Reputation system shows you the reputation that you have received. Go to Android Forums to see the rep you have received (I haven't gotten a lot here, but I am a n00b, so.... 
)
Over at Seven Forums, they implemented a dual version, where it shows both recent rep you have received as well as recent rep you have given - so you can see not only who's been kind but who you have been kind to....
Something like that may make it easier to work with the rep system here, especially as both sites are running the same BB software, from what I can tell...

EDIT: Added the following
Hmm, seems the image system always re-sizes images, making them hard to read - for example, my signature pic....and the image above.

the difference between the rep button and the rep system is the following
the lil add rep emblem is not really visible to many, most users never run there mouse ove the emblem to see what it does. while the thanks button is more visible
the rep system is more general, as where the thanks button is more post specific and the rest of the community can see who helped when a user posts a question
the hack also brings a thanks count that goes in the user postbit that shows how many times the user has been helpful
the user's profile also displays the amount of times the user has been thanked

lol - I hate to sound negative, but I liked the scales better. It allowed me to say *why* I was giving rep (or, conversely, adding negative rep).
Ah, well. At least the plus side is that 1) I can see it a lot easier, and 2) it adds a remark underneath the post saying you thanked the OP for it....
