UX Improvements in the DAppStore -- Eliminate Banners for Prysm and DMS
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Many users, myself included, do not see Prysm or DMS when they first go to the DAppStore.
Those two Dapps are featured in large graphic banners at the top of the page, while all the other Dapps are shown in orderly rows of rectangles with an image, name, and "Get" button.
The users are suffering from Banner Blindness, and don't realize that Prism and DMS are actual Dapps like all the others. They are therefore ignoring them.
Moreover, because those two items don't show a "Get" button, they also don't show an "Update" button when there is an update available.
Describe the solution you'd like
Instead of featuring those two applications as banners, I propose they should be made into rectangles with images and buttons like all the other Dapps. However, to call them out more prominently, they should be set off at the top under a heading "Featured Applications" or "Most Popular Applications". Then everyone would know to download them first.
One thing to watch out for: make sure it doesn't look like it's a "sponsored" area. Users ignore those, too.
Describe alternatives you've considered
You could try adding a "Get" or "Update" button to the banners, but I think that would only be addressing part of the problem.
