simpler start page?

[dlanm2u]

I would like to (though don't exactly know how to) make a simpler, more text based quick start page in place of the current start page setup sort of like blender and a more complex page under an icon tab somewhat like microsoft office with the tutorial pages and anything that wouldn't be necessary for every startup.

Startpage could use more work. can you elaborate in more depth ?
