Technical Aspects

Requirements

In terms of requirements, FlickrSync currently requires:

· Windows XP SP2 or later

· Microsoft .Net 3.0. You may download .Net 3.0 from the Microsoft Web site: click here

 

Image Metadata

Image metadata is currently extracted from IPTC and Exif headers. Namely the following fields are used:

· Title: IPTC Title (or Caption)

· Description: IPTC Description

· Tags: IPTC Keywords + IPTC City field + IPTC Country field

· Geo information: Exif 2.1 GPS IFD

 

For editing metadata (except geo information) we recommend the use of Microsoft Photo Info, which you can download from here

 

Configuration Files

Configuration information is saved on .Net user.config and app.config files.

The important information which is all synchronization properties (list of folders and synchronization attributes per folder) is saved on your Application Data folder (under your Documents and Settings), with the name FlickrSync.Config.user.XML where user is your username on flickr.

You can transport this file to another computer or backup it and keep all configured folder information.
