Steve -
The thumbs up symbol is the same in the old and the new!! That is the  
ONE symbol that did not change...so that is funny...I think you may  
not realize what we had before...

Obviously you could always write the thumbs up with a white palm, and  
that was always clear and still is... no matter which version we  
use... but if the thumbs up is projecting forward then we are using  
the same symbol in old and new...or at least very close...
