This evening I committed a number of fixes to make phraymd/picty windows compatible.

To test it out (links are 32 bit version of python that will work on either 32 or 64 bit windows): 


2. Optionally get the flickrapi using easy_install by downloading it here: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/flickrapi

3. Get the windows version of bzr and install it: http://wiki.bazaar.canonical.com/WindowsDownloads

4. Get the picty code by opening a terminal (goto the "start menu" select run, type "cmd.exe" then type: 

bzr branch lp:picty

5. Run the program

cd picty
pythonw bin/picty

What doesn't work:
* filesystem monitoring (need windows replacement for pyinotify package) for change in the collection
* file associations (i.e. no option to right click on an image in a file viewer and see option to "open in  picty"
* problems working with images other than jpegs
* ???

Once more things are working I will release a windows installer that packages all of the components into one bundle.
