Perhaps I forgot to mention that when I sent her a link to the folder, she started saving photos to her cellphone and quickly ran out of room.
She was able to view them via the link I sent but she wanted to download all of them to her cellphone, which cannot hold 8000 to 9000 photos. She wants to be able to send a few photos at a time to her friends, paste some into Facebook, and so on. I don't see any way she could do that from Dropbox itself.
