how to skip 'collection' screen at startup

When I start TS2013 I am immediately taken to the 'Collections' window. I assume that is standard for everyone? Is there any way to force TS2013 to go to the main menu screen instead, upon startup.

I wonder about it too. I would like the Main Menu to show up instead.

You can't skip the collection menu, but you can put a kabosh (mostly) on the startup intro and speed the loading times by adding -SkipIntros to the RW shortcut (include the dash). Example: <path>:\Steam\Steam.exe -applaunch 24010 -SkipIntros

Good grief! All you have to do is click on another selection -- is that really too much effort? "Collections" strikes me as the logical starting point for most players. I generally prefer "Main Menu", but one simple click doesn't even slow me down. Besides, under modern American excercise theory, I can count it as a calorie burner. !*lho*!
