downloading photos from dropbox

I noticed that when you select ONE photo it allows you to "save as" but is there a feature where you can select all photos at one time? I want all my photos on my computer but I can't figure out how ...

    I think I figured it out. Pretty simple. Just click (off of a picture) and then drag your curser. It starts selecting all of the pictures. Then select "Direct Download" 

    Go to the Finder on your MAC and you'll see that the file did download but it may be a .zip --Just double click and it will transform into a folder. Then you can drag it into your iPhoto and it works like a champ. Hope that helps!
