Force render issues (raw=1) and shared links won't work for hosting.

images were perfect on all browsers until yesterday afternoon - what is the fix or is this a dropbox issue?

    We are rolling out a fix for issues with raw=1 and dl=1 links that started recently. Please try again and let us know if it's still not working.

As Dropbox isnt a hosting tool, it is possible they are actively blocking the rendering of the sites (they have done this previously). Do the links work if you just use the links and not on a web page?
