In order to be consistent with the style of Yahoo America, the [Y! Yahoo! HomepageisConstantlyEvolving】Li Xiaofan has retained all of this purple frame.

On both sides of the LOGO are eight main function buttons "New", "Cool", "Writeus", "Headline", "Popular", "Random", "AddURL" and "Info" that are consistent with the style of the LOGO. These functions are consistent with Yahoo in the United States. .
But on the basis of these eight functional sections, Li Xiaofan asked Pan Zhanlong to add "Discover the Lion City", "Free Email", "Lion City
S Forum" and other three special function buttons.
