Could include an info graphic, e.g. pool or solo ?

Especially useful for newcomers who don't read tutorial, improve usability.

The pool option should be pool neutral (not hardcoded to only recommend katiee's pool).

An infographic which is a simplified version of the gridcoin.us tutorials would be pretty cool.

There should be a help button for this too explaining the Pros and Cons of both choices. I suspect that most newbies are "chomping at the bit" to get their new "wealth" and have not read most of the associated documentation for Gridcoin. Just a suggestion to avoid repeatedly answering the What should I choose question.
