"What the Scratch Community is viewing" to "has been viewing"
I noticed that Top Loved and Top Viewed got their names changed... in my opinion, this is great. No more of that "How did that get Top Loved?". It now says "What the Scratch Community is loving". That's great. It says it as the majority of the Scratch Community, instead of the old way, which looked sort of like everyone loved it, instead of the majority. And it's the same for Top Viewed, of course.
One thing, though - when it says "What the Scratch Community is viewing", that sounds like "What is being viewed right now". Wouldn't it be better to call it "What the Scratch Community has been viewing"? Like that, it gets rid of the "Ooh, something's being viewed right now!" and makes it more of "So that is what's been viewed lately".
What do you think?

I can see your point...but in that case, shouldn't they both be changed to the past tense?

Good point...
For me, I never really felt much about the Top Loved thing. But it makes sense... so I agree!

Thats a good point. I like the change, as it will cut off some of the debate that has been going on recently.
