You can see it better in long, well populated threads. Try the [Pro-life/pro-choice](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/why-are-you-pro-choice-or-pro-life/949904) thread. Under the OP, there will be a short list of avatars. Click the down arrow to expand it.

There are some requirements for being listed there. I think that you have to have at least two posts in the thread, for instance.

If the person you’re looking for isn’t there (or if they don’t have a button), click the search icon, make sure that search this topic is checked, and type in their username (don’t forget underscores).
