Toolbox Login Screen - Revamp

This might feel like a small change, and in some ways it is, but a few tweaks to our Toolbox login screen could deliver a lot of benefit...

The biggest thing you’ll notice in this mock-up is the new sidebar. The idea is to give users a quick way to see what educational sessions are coming up. Since we’re kicking off daily quick sessions tomorrow to help with the OEM-to-BSB transition, it feels like the perfect time to add something like this. Plus, it’s a nice way to stay updated without having to dig through another email. This education and product news feed will stay up-to-date as we release new info.
I'm also suggesting an “Update Available” link that shows up when a newer version is available. If you click it, you’ll land on the Microvellum Portal site, where you can download the update.
You'll also notice two new buttons, "New Project" and "Open Project". Adding these two buttons to the login screen will save a few clicks when starting or opening a project - making it a bit more intuitive for new users. If you choose to click the "Continue" button, it would function as it does today - opening Toolbox to the CAD environment.

If you’ve been around for a while, you might remember a UI like this from back in the day. Same idea, just updated to fit what we’re focusing on now: keeping users in the loop about education and available updates.
