Add instagram support #105

When clicking the instagram button in the main menu, one should see a list of photos tagged with a certain hashtag. See the UI pic.

Using an external library like Picasso (http://square.github.io/picasso/) to download and cache the instagram thumbnails would make it easier. Would this be possible? It could also be applied to other images fetched from the backend.

I always feel a bit bad about libraries, which would tangle everywhere in the app. This could work, if its usage would be restricted to some module? Then we would have more data and less magic in the structure of the app. Please, see if this would be possible :)

In order to test and use the instagram API, the instagram client ID and instagram client secret must be obtained (https://github.com/futurice/festapp-server/blob/master/Services.md). Could you provide this?

sorry for the delay! You should use your own instagram account to create the required ID and secret. See http://instagram.com/developer/
