If you look at someone's post, you will see three symbols on the left at the very bottom of the post and under where the screen name and all that jazz go. The one in the middle is for leaving reps on that particular post. If you hover the mouse over it, it will say 'reputation for CherryWine's post' or something similar. If you just want to leave a 'thanks' without words or a personal note, then look to the bottom right of the post. There's a Thanks button. Please keep in mind that you can leave a rep and then thanks on the same post but cannot thank a post and then leave a rep. Tricky!

Yes, the User CP at the bottom is where your reps will show up and it will only show you the most recent ones. You will also get notifications in the box at the top right of the screen that's gray and says 'Welcome, CherryWine.' for private messages as well as for public notes left....kind of like a public rep.

You have the option of turning these features on or off under the User CP function, I believe.
