+It is nice to hear that! Unfortunately, I still use KDE 1.1.2.... By the way,
+when is the final release o 2.0?

+ 
+As you know, the moon keeps always the same face turned to earth (the so called
+near side). This is a composition of its period of orbital motion and rotation:
+they are approximately the same. The moon's orbit is inclined with respect to
+the equator by (only) 5 degrees, and for our purposes, keeps the polar
+orientation in the sky unchanged. This means that the angle that you
+see the moon in the sky changes by a composition of two factors only: 1)
+latitude of the observer, and 2) time of the day that you look at the moon. If
+you look at the moon over many hours, the change of orientation in the sky is
+moon's orbital plane is close to the equator (as I said before) the discussion
+of orientation looses any meaning. At these positions, the passage by the
+meridian happens very close to the top of your head. So, I can be facing east
+and move my head up to see the moon, or I can be facing west and move my head
+up. Which rotation should I addopt? That is why I told you to use 0 or 180
+degrees. Otherwise, you would need to incorporate in your code many otherif he
+relations, including the latitude of the observer.he will see the first quarter
+moon as a C and the last quater moon as a D (see
+> The current kmoon uses the pictures of this site:l) when the moon is over
+> http://timbeauchamp.tripod.com/moon/, but a (german) colleague ofes over his

+ 
+My colleague is correct. The east-west sides in the pictures are wrong, so you
+should flip them sideways. For an observer in the northern hemisthere this is
+all you need to do. For an observer in the southern hemisphere, you need to
+rotate this new set of images by 180 degrees. Keep in mind that in the sky if
+north is up east is to the left, if south is up east is to the right. You can
+easily see this if you lay down ;-/ on the floor with you head/legs pointing to
+the north/south line. Now, try to point your left arm to the geographic
+east while facing up.
+ 
+I hope this helps you. If you like more info, it will be a pleasure to
+help. Best wishes,
+ 
+Carlos
