Good work!

Thanks. Putting order in stuff is part of my job. 🙃

1. The new links order is definitely a good idea. I support it.  
2. I also think the logo is ugly and might deter new users. But let's move
this topic to another thread because there will be a long and heated
discussion about personal preferences here. So let's first focus on
improving the order of links.  

Yea. I seem to have repeatedly hit the hornet’s nest with a very large stick with this topic. 🐝

3. Agree with others that the 'Click here' button doesn't fit with Emacs.


Yea, it stands out. I’ll give you that. It could just say “New Emacs User Tutorial”, but that would conflict a bit with the Emacs Tutorial right under it. Also, I know it’ll be seen as “new” as in “we didn’t do computers like that back in the day”, but most new users to apps expect a “click here” sorta thing. And I’m trying to reach them. So I’m open to how to do that. 🙃
