We claim: 1. A packaging system comprising: a plurality of packages each containing at least one absorbent article having an absorbent capacity, each of the packages contains only absorbent articles having the same absorbent capacity, and at least two packages contain absorbent articles having a different absorbent capacity; an exterior face located on each package comprises a primary capacity indicator wherein the primary capacity indicator on each package comprises a different color hue of the same base color, and a darker hue is present on a package containing an absorbent article having a higher absorbent capacity than a package containing an absorbent article having a lower absorbent capacity; and a void volume indicator, wherein the primary absorbent capacity indicator on each package corresponds to a plurality of primary wetness indicators located on the void volume indicator. 2. The package system of claim 1, wherein the void volume indicator comprises a plurality of wetness indication zones, each zone comprising a primary wetness indicator, the plurality of wetness indication zones each provide feedback by the primary wetness indicator to indicate progressively increasing void volumes. 3. The package system of claim 1, wherein the void volume indicator comprises a hollow cylinder having a base located on one end and a funnel shaped opening located on an opposing end, and wherein the primary wetness indicators comprise colored areas disposed on the cylinder between the base and the funnel shaped opening. 4. The packaging system of claim 1 further comprising a secondary capacity indicator having an indicia selected from the group consisting of words, numbers, letters, or symbols, and the secondary absorbent capacity is located on the exterior face of each package. 5. The packaging system of claim 4 wherein the primary absorbent capacity indicator comprises a rectangular bar and the secondary capacity indicator is superimposed over the primary absorbent capacity indicator. 6. The package system of claim 4 wherein the indicia are selected from the group consisting of Pantiliner, Thin, Regular, Extra, Extra Plus, Ultra, Ultra Plus, and Beyond Pads. 7. The package system of claim 4 wherein the indicia are selected from the group consisting of Light, Moderate, Heavy, and Beyond Pads. 8. The package system of claim 4 wherein tile indicia are selected from the group consisting of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10, and wherein a higher numeral represents an increasing void volume. 9. The package system of claim 1, wherein the void volume indicator comprises an absorbent pad having an absorbent structure disposed on a bottomsheet, and wherein the primary wetness indicators comprise colored areas of the absorbent pad. 10. The package system of claim 9 wherein the colored areas are concentric ovals. 11. The package system of claim 9 wherein the void volume Indicator further comprises a central longitudinal axis and a central traverse axis, the colored areas comprising rectangular areas having a longitudinal width dimension and a traverse length dimension, and wherein the length dimension is greater than the width dimension. 12. The package system of claim 9 wherein the bottomsheet is transparent. 13. A packaging system comprising: a plurality of packages each containing at least one absorbent article having an absorbent capacity, each of the packages contains only absorbent articles having the same absorbent capacity, and at least two packages contain absorbent articles having a different absorbent capacity; an exterior face located on each package comprises a primary capacity indicator; wherein the primary capacity Indicator on each package comprises a different color hue of the same base color, and a darker hue is present on a package containing an absorbent article having a higher absorbent capacity than a package containing an absorbent article having a lower absorbent capacity a void volume indicator, wherein the primary absorbent capacity indicator on each package corresponds to a plurality of primary wetness indicators located on the void volume indicator; and a secondary capacity indicator having an indicia selected from the group consisting of words, numbers, letters, or symbols, and the secondary absorbent capacity is located on the exterior face of each package wherein the primary and the secondary absorbent capacity indicators on each package corresponds to a plurality of primary and a plurality of secondary wetness indicators located on a void volume indicator.
