Prerequisites

In order to use this desktop application, you must be using Java version 6. If you attempt to run it using an earlier Java version, you will probably come up with an error message like the following:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: 
uk/me/phillsacre/uploader/FacebookUploader (Unsupported major.minor version 50.0)

If you don't know which version you are using, in a command-window (from Windows, go to Start -> Run -> enter "cmd.exe" and press OK) type: java -version

What you should see is something like this:

C:\> java -version
java version "1.6.0_01"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_01-b06)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.6.0_01-b06, mixed mode, sharing)

Note the line java version "1.6.0_01" - if the number starts with "1.6" you should be fine.

Installation

Unzip the fb-uploader.zip file somewhere on the system. You will need an application like WinZip or 7-Zip. For instructions on running the Uploader, please see the Running page.
