Making the Cartoon scene more cartoon like

[phet-steele]

Trish and I thought that it might be best to either change the name of the "Cartoon" scene to something that better states that's it's not to scale, or to make the images in that scene more cartoon like and less realistic. We thought it might be somewhat confusing to show the Earth and Moon orbiting so close to each other when it wasn't actually what happens. Maybe make it just a colored ball? Is this something worth looking into? I know for some people the word "Cartoon" is sufficient for stating the non realism of the scene.

Please, describe what we need to do exactly .

This is assigned to the PhET team and no work is required from MLL for this issue. Thanks for checking!

I'll assign this to @ariel-phet for design discussion.

@arouinfar thoughts on this? I would be fine changing the name, but I am not sure we want to bother with artwork.

[arouinfar]

@ariel-phet, I would rather not change the artwork, but I think we can come up with a different name. I'll starting thinking of possible alternatives.

[arouinfar]

@ariel-phet how about we change Cartoon to Model? I think "Model" conveys that things aren't to scale, especially since the other screen is "To Scale".

[ariel-phet]

Ah...I think that is a perfect name, especially since NGSS and such mentioning thinking about models, and we use that naming convention in Molecule shapes.

@aaronsamuel137 please change this name

Forgot about this issue until just now. I've changed the name (on master). Assigning to @arouinfar for review.
