[Bf-webcontent] Testimonials and Stats on Blender website

[Ton Roosendaal]

Hi,

BTW: the goal of the new website was to move emphasis away from "look what Blender can do" to "look who's using Blender for what".

Unfortunately that takes quite an editorial effort with good interviews, images, profiles, etc. I tried to get it started with the User Stories, but also that didn't work out so simple.

http://www.blender.org/features/user-stories/

We need people who like to write, design good looking pages, and who can work up to the very high expectations everyone has of the website. Probably that's scaring a lot of volunteers away I'm afraid - or they just already have their own sites. :)

>> The Blender website needs some things to let newcomers know who uses Blender. There should be testimonials from professionals who use Blender. Even more importantly, there should be statistics of Blender usage, like the numbers of how many people have downloaded Blender in the last month, last day, etc. These numbers are very important to the further growth of Blender.
