Dropbox API Support & Feedback
Find help with the Dropbox API from other developers.
I've researched this topic, buy can't seem to find any info that is correct. How do you use photos, .pngs, or gifs that are in my Dropbox and have them show up in an online forum that uses CSS? I've seen someone say that after creating a public link, you change the ending to raw=1 However, this does not work. The photo when placed between image tags [IMG][/IMG] does not show up. Is there a solution?

Although in reading that link you just gave, it basically states that it doesn't work after Oct. 3rd of this year if I'm reading that correctly.
But in posting on forums when you just need a direct link to a photo between image tags [IMG]https://www.dropbox.com/s/ucf6qub7ueuzbez/holder.jpg?raw=1[/IMG] it doesn't work and says that dynamic pages in the image tags are not allowed. ???
Whoa......I have no clue how you did that, but it works! 🙂 Looks like just changing the first part to dl.dropboxusercontent.com and keepign the rest does the trick. THANK YOU! 🙂
Can you also resize the image using such a link?
