[Sugar-devel] Sugarizer Activity Set - GSOC 2016

[Shirsh Zibbu]

Hello. I apologize for not replying earlier.
I have finally worked out all the problems mentioned below and updated the
demo
<http://t.sidekickopen04.com/e1t/c/5/f18dQhb0S7lC8dDMPbW2n0x6l2B9nMJW7t5XZs4WrKXjN8q-6Y2dnqP2VRzDdF56dC9ff6Yjdzx02?t=https%3A%2F%2Fzhirzh.github.io%2Fsugarizer-activity-moon%2F&si=5100779840208896&pi=3796c3e3-50c8-487b-d234-21195a7f53d0>
.

Please try it out and see if any more problems persist. I'd be more swift
at making amends this time onward.

Bugs fixed:

   -
   - the data is offset from current date and time by several hours
   - there is no compass direction marker or latitude longitude color
   legend when grid view is enabled
   - the toggle hemisphere view toggle button may become out of
   synchronization with the displayed image
   - the moon does not fit in Sugar Browse
