Comment (by mikeperry):

 This is likely a helpful improvement. But I have some comments:
 1. We need to make this more clear that these steps are ordered left-to-
 right. The Mendeley example clearly ordered the steps with numbered text
 above the graphics. We should probably do that too.
 2. If we do make this left-to-right, will it confuse Arabic and other RTL
 users? Can those localizations of the website reverse this order? (Do we
 even have any localizations of the website in RTL? the language dropdown
 doesn't seem to work for me)
 3. I think we should vertically center the images, if possible. The
 screenshot looks janky and disorienting with lots of unaligned buttons,
 links, graphics, and widgets all strewn about.
 4. The text "This package requires no installation. Just extract it and
 run" is no longer correct. Perhaps this text is why we saw some users
 trying to run the App directly from the DMG? We should remove this text.
 5. We should probably also remove "Read the release announcements!"
 string.
