Remove vote counts from front page, or reduce their size
I suggested some changes to the vote counts on the front page here, and was invited to post them on general meta.
Basically, I think the red/green meter is a great indicator for question quality, and I'm wondering if vote counts should be so prominently available. I would either remove them (possibly keep them as a title attribute on the meter), or reduce the font size to make them smaller than the question titles.
I think this would help draw your attention to what is actually important (the titles).
Current situation:
Mockup with small font:
(Note: maybe the negative count should be on the left and the positive on the right, so that it matches the meter)
Mockup without vote counts:
