	When a poster receives a GA, is he informed as to which message he wrote earned it?

	Yes. You will see it in your user profile. For an example you may go to my profile, or that of anyone who has a GA, and see it for yourself. __________________ CARPE CRUSTULORUM!

	Of course, the particular post is marked as a GA on the top left corner with a green thumbs up. Also you can see these in your profile page, if the "most recent GAs are listed there as the thread on which you earned it. I think something like 10 latest GAs are listed there. __________________ Fantastic ideas for a Fantastic World, I make the illogical logical.They put me in cars,they put me in yer tv.They put me in stereos and those little radios you stick in your ears.They even put me in watches, they have teeny gremlins for your watches

	Here is a thread which you started. Note the green box around the GAs and "almost" GAs just below the opening post. __________________ Bruce

	If by "informed" you mean receiving a notification eMail about it, AFAIK, no. Much less will anyone be notified about where a GA was earned. You do, however, receive notifications about replies / comments in the threads you subscribed in. Only after visiting those threads will you find out that information. __________________ Now the darkness only stays the night-time, in the morning it will fade away. -- George Harrison (All Things Must Pass)

	Unless you look at your own profile. The latest GA's are added by the site, linked to the thread. __________________ I do not 'know it all', but i will admit that I would like to. CJM

	Not officially informed like with Yahoo for example. At Yahoo there is only ONE Best Answer and you are only informed when the question is decided and closed not when it is open for voting. With CR4 the discussion is never closed and GA votes can keep on coming. __________________ Never do today what you can put of until tomorrow - Student motto
