Make user/org display more graphical on home page #325

Use nice big avatars instead of the username text heavy version we have now. Think of GitHub's team member display for inspiration.

The text is noisy and doesn't add much value - how often does the text help over the avatar? However the avatar display is visually interesting and makes it more personal ("all these people are using Morph!").

Put a graphical list of "featured" orgs on the marketing page would be really nice too because it shows how civic tech organisations are using scrapers to do practical stuff and it's a bit of social validation too.

This is no longer relevant with the new home page so closing.

This should be extracted into its own issue if it's something we still want to do.
