You will first need to have a virtual directory created in IIS (Internet Information Server) where PicMentor should be installed. Typically you can call it PicMentor, but anything suites (i.e on your local computer http://localhost/picmentor or on your webhost http://www.yourdomain.com/picmentor) but it can of course also be installed in its own subdomain (e.g http://picmentor.yourdomain.com).
After unzipping the zip-file downloaded from ASPCode.net you cimply copy all the files into that newly created directory – or upload them to your webhost using FTP.
Then set permissions on the /pics/ subdirectory so ASP.NET has full control to it and subdirectories below it (if you are unsure which user account ASP.NET is running under, then take the easy way and gice Everyone full right). Your webhost will surely help you with this on your production website.
