Meaning of upvoted

[domtony2000]

Hi. Fairly new and not totally sure of the meaning of upvoted for albums or photos
Is it just the same as a 'like'?
Does it mean that the album or photo has been shared at all?
Any help in understanding welcome!

Simply means you like the album, photo, or post the likes get added to your overall score, if that means anything to you.
