The first time

2	RUNNINGTHE FIRST TIME first time use of DeepMeta

DeepMeta needs access to the internet in order to communicate with the iStockphoto and DeepMeta servers. It's important to configure any firewall you may have, to allow DeepMeta.exe to access networking resources.
Below is an example screen for the Microsoft OneCare Firewall, but of course, your configuration may be different, depending on any Firewall software you may have installed, such as Norton security, etc.
At start up, a small panel is shown with current software version and a short text with initialization progress info.
Once started, you are presented the main program window, currently still mostly empty.
As a first step, select in the main menu: Options | Main options. In the dialog panel: enter your iStockphoto username and password. Note that these will be stored in an encrypted format and that your iStockphoto password is exchanged with the iStockphoto servers only, through secure SSL encryption. At this stage, you can test your iStockphoto login credentials with the Test button. This is a good moment to also enter your copyright information, which will sent along with your uploaded files.
