bada_bing, it may be better for you (or other community members) to simply customize the 'post thanks' mod from Abe1 and make it into a "likes" mod.
Not very hard at all by simply making a "likes" button (as opposed to a "thanks" button) and then changing the phrases that state "thanks" to "likes" and you're set :up:
WOW actually surprised to hear this, I thought this site was designed to share vb code and mods but yet the organization hosting this community wont share their mods?
Given you have been a member for 7 years, I would have expected you to already be aware that 90%+ of the internal vb.org code has never been made public. I'm surprised this is suddenly such a revelation to you.
In large forums, a list of all who liked a post could easily use a lot of screen real estate.
IMHO it would be better if a liked post only contained eg. "Likes: 23", where forum members, as an option, could click on the number and see a list of of those who liked the post.

Agree - the current placement gives user an impression about liking a user (instead of his message).

In this system after several users it will say "and X other people" so you'll never see dozens or even hundreds of usernames listed no matter how many like it.
Fair enough, but IMO even the current solution asks for too much attention - with only one voter: "The following users liked this post: ****** *******".
"Likes: 1" is more elegant. Or just an icon of some sort, and then "1".
