Before you continue
In order to run the PhluffyFotos sample application live in the cloud, you must have a CTP account for Windows Azure. Those can be obtained from http://www.microsoft.com/azure/register.mspx. However, the sample application will run just fine using the local developer fabric.

Included in the sample is a provisioning script (Provision.cmd) that should be run to provision queues, tables, and role authorization.
