Okay, that sounds very good to me.

The thing I like about Screenshot is that, it is affiliated with
software, and that is what new visitors are looking for.

"Take the tour" is often seen of big company websites, where all sorts
of products, not necessary software related, are showcased.

"Take the tour" may therefore not lead the visitor to think there are
screenshots beneath.

I understand your point, but I think that new possible users of
Gnome/Linux are primarily looking for software, so they might get
scared away by the community part of Gnome.

The community isn't for everybody, but Gnome is =) =)
