-# Tinyboard - A lightweight PHP imageboard.
-
-## About
-Tinyboard is an imageboard software package written in PHP. It aims to maintain a stable, fast, clean and user-friendly engine for imageboards. Development for Tinyboard started in October 2010 and the project is being lead by [OmegaSDG][o] ("Omega Software Develop Group"). You can contact the development team over IRC at irc.n0v4.com #tinyboard.
-
-Tinyboard is not currently at a stable state.
-
-[o]: http://omegadev.org/
-
-## Installation
- 1. Tinyboard requires a MySQL database and a user to work. Create one.
- 2. Import 'install.sql' into the database. There are several ways to do this.
- - using phpMyAdmin
- - `mysql -uUSERNAME -pPASSWORD DATABASE < install.sql`
- 3. Edit '[inc/config.php][c]' to suit your installation
- 4. Make sure that the directories used by Tinyboard are writable. Depending on your setup, you may need to `chmod` the directories to 777.
- The default directories are:
- - ./res
- - ./src
- - ./thumb
- - . (document root)
- 5. Ensure everything is okay by running [test.php][t] in a browser. The script will try and help you correct your errors.
- 6. Run the [post.php][p] script. It should create an index.html and redirect you to it if everything is okay.
- 7. Optional (highly recommended): Either delete or chmod as unreadable the following files: [test.php][t], [install.sql][i], and this [README][r].

+
+## Installation
+ 1. Tinyboard requires a MySQL database and a user to work. Create one.
+ 2. Import 'install.sql' into the database. There are several ways to do this.
+ - using phpMyAdmin
+ - `mysql -uUSERNAME -pPASSWORD DATABASE < install.sql`
+ 3. Create an 'instance-config.php'. It should be a PHP script that redefines some values in '[inc/config.php][c]' to suit your installation.
+ 4. Make sure that the directories used by Tinyboard are writable. Depending on your setup, you may need to `chmod` the directories to 777.
+ The default directories are:
+ - ./res
