Added a couple lines of text to the welcome page.

Emmet O'Neill requested to merge (removed):welcome-blurb into master

I added a short blurb to the welcome screen with the goal of reminding casual Krita users what sets Krita apart, as well as hopefully influencing more people to get involved in contribution and/or join the development fund. I'm making this a merge request to see what everybody thinks about doing this, and if there is stuff that should be added or removed.

"Krita is a free, open source, and community-driven tool for digital artists everywhere. Progress is made possible thanks in part to the ongoing support of our community contributors and development fund members."

Some other ideas:

  • Contributor/backer spotlight. If possible, we could randomly pull 2-3 names from the list of authors and dev fund members to feature on the welcome page each time you load the welcome screen, thanking them for their support. (This could be reserved for backers of a certain tier.)

  • We could get the exact number of dev fund members and inject it into the text so it would say "... and all 9,999 members of the Krita Development Fund!", or something along those lines. (May be a better idea later, if/when the number of dev fund members is higher.)
