docs/trunk/english_us/user_guide/Makefile
docs/trunk/english_us/user_guide/getting_started.tex
docs/trunk/english_us/user_guide/getting_started_screenies/Makefile
Log:
added the startup figure to the getting_started section.
This required adding the image into the getting_started_screenies folder and modifying the Makefile.
Also modified the sample data description, and partially revised the listing of menu items for consistency with v1.0.0
