Hi,
Thanks for the responses! After some exploration the Greeter eventually
reached a point where some decisions need to be made. Each needed
decision is listed below with a brief summary and accompanied by a link
to an image, with more info on each image.
As always, feel free to share your thoughts. Keep in mind that although
we will benefit from arguments for, we also really need arguments
against, so please do not be shy.
NEEDED DECISIONS:
Structure Types[0]
---------------
There are three different structures.
• Step-by-step - Guided walkthrough
• Show/Hide - Hidden off-screen or behind on-screen element

Once we decide on these things we can bust out a mockup that embodies
the new decisions and we can hopefully move into each of the settings
options, e.g., Keyboard Language, and so on.
I have kept the explanations as brief as I could, so please ask
questions if you got 'em.
