Care to share and describe why you have set it up that way?
For example, here is what I have:
(just so happens to be the "site default") Why? Well, mainly because I am "briefly reminded" about what the site is about and where to find entry points to places I have access to and have an interest regarding (e.g. everything in the left column). The right two-thirds is where I can quickly find the latest featured and posted content (not only in the forums, but across the site, since there is likely to be really informative stuff in the wikis, blogs, files, etc.)
How come you don't have the big blue widget with 'new user?','already a member', etc? Mines locked so I can't remove!
The screen shot in the original post is of the default, unmodified homepage. That has gone through changes since the "new" site came online (although it has been a while since anything was moved, added, locked, etc.) If you customized your homepage before subsequent changes to widgets were made to the site default, then you will likely not see any of the subsequent changes, at least not without reverting to the default and then adding the customizations back in. Trying to merge widget changes and resolve potential conflicts in a system like this would be very complicated and would likely cause problems.
Stuart,
There may be items that are locked, but you can still move them to the bottom to be out of the way.

How are we supposed to keep up with changes to the home page if we haveb't been notified? Or have we been notified and I missed it?
here's mine! ;-)
