How can I have others upload to a folder of mine?

Hello,  I'm new to Dropbox. I've created my first folder.  How do I direct my friends to upload to that folder?    Thanks Xavix

    You can either share that folder with your friends (they would need their own Dropbox account) or you can create a File Request which will allow them to upload directly to your account, without needing an account of their own.
