Topic: First run of PosterGenius™ on your computer.

When you first run PosterGenius™, it will inform you it has not found a License. You may continue working with the Trial Version, or you can provide your valid License. If you already own a valid serial number, click on the "Enter License" link to the bottom left of the window.

The following window dialogue appears.

Enter your serial number. As soon as you enter a valid serial number, the user data text-fields will be activated and PosterGenius™ will inform you about the number of days remaining for activating it. Until this period expires, PosterGenius™ will work in Temporary Fully Functional mode, with a watermark appearing in the background of the posters you create.
