    So, the link works and takes you to the photo but cannot see it in the board itself.
    Rubbish
    Igor. Back to the drawing board.

    Ah! Now viewing back on IPad and pictures do not show here, just little rectangles that say 'image' in them.
    Can anyone else see the two photos in the posts above and what are you viewing on?

    ^ Did you see my reply? Well, i say "reply"... i posted it before your question! Anyway, are we finding that display-or-not of a pic can depend on the device used?!

    HJ. I suspect I can see them because although they are from Dropbox, they are on my computer and the two are linked. If you cannot see them with a P C and Firefox, then
    I suspect the test is a bust and you cannot post from Dropbox directly to the board.
    I will try again from work as this computer is not linked to my Dropbox so will be a better test.

    Cool. Dropbox theory makes sense.

    Let's try this.  A nice picture of George Dubyah Bush standing in front of a sign in a rather unfortunate way at a political rally.

    Not sure what you can see but this is being posted from my work computer (where we still use Windows XP and Internet Explorer 8 as I work for the man ) and I can see this latest picture of Dubyah I have posted and the ones from last night except the one from the IPad.  Now, this computer is not linked to dropbox in the same way my howm one is, but it could be downloading the image from Dropbox to my computer but that does not explain why I can see it as though it is posted on the board.


    If you cannot see this, I think we have to conclude posting picture directly from Dropbox is not possible (Boo).
