Documentation

A first version of the documentation is now included in the distribution. Unfortunately this doubles its size.

How it works ?
There are two parts, the local application and the remote WEB server. The job is prepared locally in the application and when images and comments are ready, the synchronize action will upload the new files to the server using FTP protocole as a mirror.
So you need in the server side a WEB server and an access to the WEB pages via FTP.

To start :

• Create a new profile,
• Create a new folder in the left tree window,
• Change to the new folder,
• Drag/Drop directory or JPEG images from Windows-explorer to the right window,
• Images will be imported, computated and displayed,
• Upload to the web server using the synchonize button,
• That's all !
