It sincerely sounds like a thin line to be treading - users can generally handle
significant changes in content - intermediate+ users usually find
value in updated
content, deals and suggested items on their Amazon landing site for
example, but
framework changes such as color would seem to be confusing.
Banner images are often expected to be inserts, ads or only related to
structure as
to the space they occupy, so the change of the image seems less
significant or even expected.

Does the color change serve another aspect of the user experience?
Does it highlight a direction for the user, a purpose for their being
there or what they
want to do?
