Hi Cristi! First things first, thanks for the tutorial.
I wonder if you might help me with an issue: in the python shell, when i try to run 'from watson_developer_cloud import etc' i got this error: 'Import Error: no moduel named watson_developer_cloud'. You got any ideas what could i be doing wrong?

Hi Cristi, How count number person in image? Tks

[leazuna]

Hi Cristi,

I'm having trouble with the last step, when using "images_url", I get an message saying "TypeError: classify() got an unexpected keyword argument 'images_url'"

I'm using a mac. Would appreciate if you could help!
