A bug was just discovered with the package used for the home page. Seems it doesn't auto-update when new modules are added.
FROM THE HOME PAGE : If you cannot see either the random pics (on the right) or "Popular tags" (on the left)
1) From the Home page, once again, click "Customize this page".
2) Drag "Search" to the center column"
3) You will get an error message saying something about inactive modules "are now displayed at the bottom".
4) Go to the bottom and drag both "Popular Tags" and "Random Pics" to where you want them to be displayed.
5) Put the search box back where you found it (or whereever you want it)
6) Click to EXIT the configuration
All should now be well with the universe.
