+# Lychee
+
+#### A great looking and easy-to-use Photo-Management-System.
+
+Lychee is open-source and free to use wherever you want. Just download the source and follow the instructions to install Lychee on your server.
+
+## Installation
+
+To run Lychee, everything you need is a web-server with PHP 5.3 or later and a MySQL-Database.
+
+#### PHP configuration `php.ini`
+
+The following extensions must be activated:
+
+	extension = php_mbstring.dll
	extension = php_exif.dll
+	extension = php_gd2.dll
+	
+To use Lychee without restrictions, we recommend to increase the values of the following properties:
+
+	upload_max_filesize = 100M
+	max_file_uploads = 100
	post_max_size = 100M
+
+#### MySQL configuration
+
+Create a new Database and remember the name.
+	
+#### Lychee configuration `lychee/php/config.php`
+
+Change the following properties with your MySQL information:
+
+	$db = The name of the Database you want to use  
	$dbUser = Your MySQL username  
	$dbPassword = Your MySQL password
+
+Your photos are protected by a username and password you need to set:
+
+	$user = Your username for Lychee  
+	$password = Your password for Lychee
+	
+Optional configuration:
+
+	$thumbQuality = Photo thumbs quality
+	-> Less means a inferiority quality of your thumbs, but faster loading
+	-> More means a better quality of your thumbs, but slower loading
+	
+	$bitlyUsername = Bit.ly Username
	$bitlyApi = Bit.ly API key
+	-> Lychee can generate short links if this properties are set
+
+## How to use
+
+After the configuration navigate your browser to the place where Lychee is located. Everything should work now. If not, check the logs and try to fix the error.
