Intrusive "Love" icon links on "Top Cast" sections

The new "love" icons in "Top Cast" sections is distractive & obtrusive.  They take away from the content and pleasantness of the page.  If they must have these link icons on every cast's thumbnails, why not make them smaller and black-on-white instead of white-on-black.  These current black icon links are distracting and unpleasant.  I hope somehow that IMDb will read this and at least tone down this new "feature".
