Ending support of public folder
Just heard from dropbox that support for the public folder is ending.

As a result, we’ll soon be ending support for the Public folder. Dropbox Pro users will be able to use the Publ...
- 8 years agoLGM - the issue is that people are abusing it and causing issues for everybody by getting the Dropbox domains blacklisted which cause emails to fail and downloads to be blocked by firewalls etc.
In terms of changing the extension, sorry, no idea how you would do that!

- Generally, as time goes on, web services such as dropbox would *improve" and *increase* their features. Removing this widly popular option is a step backwards.
- If this does happen, I want to thank you now for making me look like an idiot. All the post I have on fourms with tutorials, and such, are now all going to be blank images. Thanks for making me look like "that guy who can't find a realiable host."
- Some fourms I post on, I can't even go back and edit the link after a few hours or days. You can bet your bottem dollar on such sites I'll be publicly and very loudly forced to point the finger at dropbox.
I'm going to give DropBox a few months to reconsider this and pull their head out of you-know-where. Then, if no changes are made - I'll be looking for other solutions.
