Well, we could always replace the "New Stories" thing with a Recent Activity box or something, since a lot of people have pointed that out as a problem. Or we could follow Zinc's suggestion, having a corner for announcements or something. As for the colors situation, I agree with Reddy on that point; the variety of colors kinda makes our frontpage unique, even though, if we're seeking renewal and modernization, a change of colors could also be a good idea.
