    You should be able to do it through the relevant button (camera icon or 'insert media' option) within your reply box or by dragging and dropping it into your reply Minacio 

    Could you give it a go and let me know how it goes?

      I have/had the same issue, with dozens of little shields on my taksbar.  It seems to have stoped for now.  Was this something that was fixed by techs at Dropbox?  If it comes back I can attached an image.

        Thanks for letting us know, Mark K.48.

        There's not something we're aware of that was fixed, but if it does come back, please send us a screenshot for sure.

        Cheers!
