I’m guessing at least some of the very many 7 clicks Tommys_Dad got for this cap:

“What’s the deal with these icons?”

Weren’t just because it was clever and visualized all the icons that would show up, but because well, people might just be wondering what the deal is. So, just a quick rundown from the info page:

: Lets you e-mail a copy of the caption below to a friend.
: Lets you vote for the caption as one of your favorites.
You must be registered and logged on to vote. Voting is anonymous and you can vote for
your own captions, although doing so is considered gauche by some. Favorited captions appear on the favorites page for up to two days after they’re capped.
Once you’ve voted for a caption, the thumb becomes a medal - -to indicate your choice.
: A link to the profile of the capper who made the caption.
The profiles are hosted at the Capper Wiki.
Actually, there’s no guarantee it belongs to the same user, but if I catch people linking to other people’s profiles, I won’t be happy. Once you’ve created a profile there and registered here, you can set up a link on your preferences page (also linked from the greeting in the upper left hand corner). You can choose between having it show up on any caption you make while logged in, or just the ones for your regular handle (which is useful for holiday handles).

: Edit a caption you made a typo on. Appears next to any captions you’ve made while you’re logged in, even if you changed handles like a sneak.
: Saves your edits.
: Cancels any unsaved edits to a caption.

: The logo of the Autoccappomatic 4500.
In the links, clicking it will ask the AC4.5K to write a caption for an image it picks, and share the credit with you. In the gallery, it denotes a caption written with the AC’s help.

Note: the Cappomatic does not become available until after you’ve written a caption and taken our cookie.

[The blue number]: Shows how many cappers have favorited the caption below.
And of course the [f] lets you share the cap on your Facebook profile.
