There are some minor changes to the Soap Central FrontPage this week. While still using the existing format that our readers have come to enjoy, we've incorporated changes that stem from the feedback we've received from you, our readers, over the past few months. None of the changes are jarring, but we've gone back to some of formats used in designs past.
The most notable change is a return to color-coded news items. We've also made better use of the space, making sure that there's not a lot of empty space with no content.
There are also a few new features. The biggest change is our new "Hot List," a listing of the top soaps, actors, and characters being discussed on our web site. The listing will be updated weekly, so you'll always know what other soap fans are talking about.
Below is a diagram that provides and overview of the changes. As always, please feel free to send over Feedback with your thought on the design.
