How can I delete all my photos?

How can I delete every pic in Dropbox at once,  I have so many it would take an  hour to do one at a time.

    Hi texstra, thanks for messaging the Community!

     

    Do you have the Dropbox desktop application installed on your machine? Are the files syncing to your computer?

     

    This will help me to assist further!

    If the files are syncing in the Dropbox folder, with the app running in the background, you can delete them from the computer, and the deletions would sync to the Dropbox site.
