You can duplicate the featured.tpl and change the titles based on your updated featured sections. You can call your new featured templates from welcome.tpl.

Then you can create a new products_t.tpl to specifically display your featured products. You include this new products_t_featured.tpl from your new featured templates

Inside the new products_t_featured.tpl, you can use if/than statements based on the position to display the various feature sections as you want.

This would be quick and dirty - not as nice from an administrative point of view than you could get from hiring someone to do a mod for you.

the idea is great! would you please take some time to offer us the details, step by step?
