There are four problems with this banner, which should be fixed. 1) The first banner should be the "Ubuntu Software-Center Banner". 2) After seeing all features/promotions in a slide-show, there is probably no use, in seeing these again and again. So it would be useful to mark all slided banners in the list as slided and slide to the beginning, when the next one is a marked one. (In this case the "Ubuntu Software-Center Banner" is shown, cause it's the first one. You're also able to slide through the banners manually, so the information this area provides is not lost) 3) On little screens the banner takes quite a lot space. Instead of the big banner it should be possible to choose between three types/options: * Big banner * Notification area which informs that there are new features/promotions available. A Button enables the big banner for this session only. * Hide banner 4) It should be possible to select types of features/promotions in which you are interested seeing. (office, game, commercial, ...) Maybe it's easier to implement the banner as list like the "What's new"-List or "Top rated"-List. It would not take that much space, it does not slide all the time and if you want to see more, there is always the "See more"-Button, though the "selective- features/promotions" isn't available yet.
