Selecting all starred photos
I need to select all of the photo's that we recently starred. The only way I can see them all together is on my homepage but from there you cannot select multiple photo's and there are no checkboxes...

When it comes to file organizing and photo organizing in particular Dropbox is beyond inadaquete.
Dropbox's photo mamangement used to be more than adequate, and in fact better than most other services, but they've been going backwards in recent years. We've lost Carousel (a fantastic app to manage photos on a mobile device), Albums, the previous design of the Photos page (hell, the entire website design sucks now!), the basic capabilities to manage the photos in the main location we're viewing them from, etc. Each change is accompanied by a message that they're looking into ways to improve the site, but improvements never come. Dropbox says they'll launch improvements as they learn how we prefer to work with Photos, but the ways we've preferred have all been removed.
Fact is, Dropbox is no longer the best tool for photo management, and they seem to not care about that anymore. They continue to remove features in the name of improvement, but actual improvements never come, and I seriously doubt that they ever will at this point. Photo and video management is just not on their radar anymore.

I agree. And I use Dropbox primarily for other purposes myself. I suspect they have decided photo storage is something they want to actively discourage, if their updates and changes are any indicator. Which is fine, I guess. But when my current subscription is set to renew I expect I will pay for cloud storage in another location that both provides for document and file sharing, but also allows for easy photo management and sharing; unless that trend reverses.
