Hey PeterXP,
I'll be more than happy to pass along your feedback and suggestions to our dev team so that they can review this for future Dropbox improvements.
Unfortunately, at the moment there's not much else I can suggest here as we don't have a function that would help with migrating your data. I could suggest though that there may be some third-party apps that you might be able to use which you could find with a quick web search. Some other users might even be able to give you some suggestions here!
Let me know if you have any other questions - thanks!

It's highly unlikely that Dropbox will ever develop such a feature. They used to have many photo-centric features, including a separate iOS app just for photo management, but it and nearly all other photo features, including the ability to create and share albums, have been removed from Dropbox over the last few years. They just don't seem interested in photo management anymore.

Okay thank you very much.
I would have thought that he would be in dropbox interest to make the transition from any of the major players (Apple, Google and Microsoft) as easy as possible. Dropbox is one of the only services that lets you be flexible, because the service works on all platforms.
