I now feel like I should just stop making avatars all together, I probably won't and this is just my frustration talking, but yeah. I had over 130+ likes and now I feel bad for the people that liked my avatar over the years because it's essentially as though they've liked it for nothing. I know there were others that had a lot more than me, but this is awful for everyone in my opinion. I'm not a super popular person that gets avatar likes daily on every single little thing I make, so they meant a lot to me.
Pet likes are okay, but I don't feel they were a necessary thing. I know, I'm in the minority on that one probably.

Well crap, I was proud of my total and this just kind of bites.
RIP Mom, I love & miss you more than you know. Tell Dede hi.

the pet likes are on the pet page, not the profile :)

hmm...I had maybe 5 likes or something ;) so...not that popular anyway ;)
I totally understand :( Like I said in one of my earlier posts - it was just completely broken. If you got likes during the day, they never actually added to your total count.
It's actually incredibly likely that you've had a lot more likes and they just never got added to your total, which is resolved now :(

But that's just the counter? I don't see how someone could access that page to "like" my pets. I can't find on my pets profiles where someone would "like" my pet.
Ah..yes, you're right. I can just barely see the heart on your profiles. Its partially covered. Look between your pet image and the text, mostly under the image. Its at about the level of the second line of text. So yes, it would need to be moved.

!!! The pet likes are so cute oh man I'm really stoked about this, it's great motivation to look around at other peoples' pets! Thanks for this!! : D

I don't care about pet likes, though I understand that people will.
I'm not happy about the loss of my HA likes. I'm not someone who posts a lot or is in a big HA cult and I was really proud of my HA likes and some of the comments people sometimes made about some HAs I created. And all the visual expression of that (the likes count) for me is for naught. I don't know why the total couldn't get saved and put back. My count continued to work fine as far as I could tell. Always went up when people liked my HA at the end of the day. The possiblility that I had more likes than was in my count means nothing to me now that my count is zero.

I like the pet like idea and not sure about anyone else but I would love one on the treasure chest for pets. I think they are cool to look at especially when they are unusual and pertain to the pet profile or story.
So, now that I've calmed down some.
If you guys need to move the pet like heart around on the pet pages use this:
.pet_like {position:absolute;left:73px;top:60px;}
Just adjust the width and height to fit your needs.

I'm really happy about the inclusion of the button on pet pages, and I hope it entices people to look at pets more often :) It's a shame about the likes being reset entirely, but luckily for me I had very few likes so I was fortunate enough to not have to suffer as great of a loss. I'll be sure to like avatars more often knowing now that the counter works better <3
oh man. lost over 400 avatar likes. oh well. pet likes will be interesting...
I assume you can like each pet just once, yeah? (That seems to make the most sense, at least) If not, I am going to have a really hard time remembering which ones I've liked already. At 50 a day it's gonna take a while to hit all the pets I enjoy.
Also, do the likes disappear if the pet is adopted out/abandoned, so they can be at 0 for the new owner? SORRY FOR ALL THESE QUESTIONS I AM JUST REALLY EXCITED
This looks like an interesting improvement.

1 per pet and it sticks around with that pet even if its adopted / abandoned!

:D
O. :( Well, damn, I'll miss that 5.5k! Great to see it fixed, though, thank you!
