Sorry if this is a dumb question, consider the source.
I see a “Like” button on gallery posts, and a few of my images have received a “Like” or two; what is this?  Just a “thumbs up,” or something connected to Facebook?  I tried doing a search here @NSN, but no joy.
Thanks.

The 'Like' button is simply a way for people to say that they like an image if they haven't got time, or can't be bothered, to post a comment.  So as you say its just a 'thumbs up' - but at least you know they like it, Craig!  :)

Here is a link that mentions the like button and the way some people use it.  I left the highlights in yellow so that it would be easier to find the mentions, although not all highlighted places apply.

It is also used to indicate liking a post or reply.
