How about separating the Welcome Screen in two categories?
- Left -> System
- RIght -> Community
Something like this:

Thanks for the feedback. In some ways, they’re already semi-grouped:
- About the system and setting it up (top-left)
- Supporting the development (top-right)
- Interactive and talkative community features (bottom-left)
- New: Customisation options (bottom-right)
What we wouldn’t want to do is turn it into a long list of many, many buttons. In future this screen will be redesigned as it’s codebase is being rewritten to be easier to maintain.
I agree, IMHO it makes more sens, though i would put “customize Panel” between “Getting started” and “Software” as we usually want to customize our desktop before to download a bunch of things after a fresh install, as well as to have a better look by separating the 2 big green buttons.
But yes i like your idea, make more sens to me too!
I second this. I see both Software and Layouts as customization options. Better fit for the left side story line: what’s this, how to use it, let’s tweak it.
Whereas the right side has a much more community involvement feel to it: we’re a community, get involved, also give us your money.
Old thread but my 2 cents anyway 
I would like to see Welcome screen reorganisation as below:
Group-1
Introduction
Features
Getting Started
Group-2
Community
Chat Room
Get Involved
Group-3
Browser Selection
Default Layout (Or combine Browser Selection/Default Layout as Customize)
Software Boutique
Group-4
Shop
Donate
