Improve community section

Original issue title: Add image as background to Community section

Possible images to use:

• https://projectweek.na-mic.org/PW30_2019_GranCanaria/zoom-photo.png
• https://projectweek.na-mic.org/assets/800px-2016_Winter_Project_Week_Final_Day.JPG

I tried one of the images ( added a CSS class in 13488ff ). Its not looking too good to me.

I think the current version (without image) is looking better.

but if you prefer image version (like above screenshot) just replace class 'comminuty-card-bg' with 'comminuty-card-bg-with-image' on line 18 in callouts.html

I think we should just remove:

and instead of a large section describing the community. An idea could also to add carousel with picture from some of the project week.

+1 for carousel of project week photos

I agree that we don't need this download box.

Having multiple carousels might make the site a bit too busy, but I would need to see how it looks - maybe it would work well.

Update community section to include "Slicer numbers"

I would like to include a section with these

• Download counts
• Research literature references
• Years of Development
• Number of contributors (as reported on GitHub)

I am also wondering if these would be useful too:

• Years of development as reported in cocomo model (~140 years) See here.
• Number of extensions

Then, after clicking on "Learn more" button we would end on a version of https://www.slicer.org/wiki/Main_Page/SlicerCommunity migrated to this site.

@pieper @lassoan What do you think ?

I got the idea looking at http://pixelmedical.ca

[pieper]

I like the concept and content. Only thing I don't like is the font with the "3" dipping below the line.

And yes, I like the idea of including the number of citations at this level too. Maybe it could be another row, or one big number since that's an important metric for many researchers.

What is the meaning of "high quality extensions"?

I would also consider linking the metrics from https://www.openhub.net/p/slicer and GitHub. I know we lost all the stars with the transition, but they will come back, and we should have GitHub stars in this list. Number of contributors over time is also a very important metric I think.

[fedorov]

You could also consider listing the number of NIH funded grants summarizing https://www.slicer.org/wiki/Documentation/4.x/Acknowledgments, although that could be a double-edged sword, but at the same time, it is already public information ... Another idea is to include a map showing groups that are actively contributing.

@jcfr Let me know if we want to create Figma mockups of different options we r discussing for this section.
