Pictures not visible (from blog comment)

Thanks.
The best cheet sheet of pyspark.
In the notebook the pictures are not visible and complains about the v3 version, instead of the v4.
Python 2.7.6 , IPython 3.1.0 , in a prepackaged VM with Spark (from Edx mooc)

I can reproduce this behavior in the Edx VM by cloning pyspark-pictures to the host machine, and then uploading 'pyspark-pictures.ipynb' to the VM via the notebook landing page. This breaks the assumptions of the HTML used to display the pictures, since the .ipynb file has been moved outside the project folder. The solution is to copy the entire project folder into the VM.

1. on host machine, copy entire 'pyspark-pictures' project folder to same folder with 'Vagrantfile'
2. restart VM (if running)
3. ssh to VM from host machine: (e.g > sudo vagrant ssh ), pyspark-pictures will be in '/vagrant'
4. copy pyspark-pictures to home directory on VM (e.g. > cp -r /vagrant/pyspark-pictures ~/ )
5. open pyspark-pictures.ipynb from notebook, pictures should display

The 'v3/v4 warning' is an Ipython version issue and can be safely ignored.
