Noticed when I'm reading a post, there is this little icon that says Reputation? below everyones name? Maybe it's been there all along and I've just never seen it My question is when you click on your own, it shows how many points you have. Is more good or less?

Here are some pics of the black leather cover I've been working on. I will have another one shortly in a color that is very close to the wood grain color on the originals. (

My guess is that this feature is so new and so little used that the data just isn't valid yet. We might have 3 people with negatives and 3 with positives and 5000 that are neutral. In that case the top 50 or bottom 50 have no meaning. I realize that people are probably concerned about the negative repercussions of a system like this. One way to avoid that is to only use it for positive purposes. The next time someone posts something that you think is helpful to you or someone else go ahead and add to their reputation. I often want to follow up a post with "Wow, that's good information" but don't want to clutter up the thread. This is a nice alternative.
