Will it count against my daily bandwidth, if someone streams my shared video via the website?
Today I shared a 9 minute video I shot of my friends. I shared it with them and more than 10 of them must have downloaded it. "Because this is your first ban, you may remove the temporary ban on your shared and Public folder links." That makes it sound like I could be permanently banned if I ever did that again, which is…

How can I delete an empty folder on the Dropbox site?
How do you delete an empty folder via the Dropbox website? I've logged into the website and deleted all the files in the folder. However, I can't find any option to delete that folder.

Is it possible to enable grid view when accessing folders via shared links?
I find it incredibly frustrating that I cannot view images in a folder by grid. The idea of creating an album for each folder seems crazy -- especially as those folders seem to be on a per account basis rather than across our cloud storage. I find it frustrating that I would have to then search for an album in a non list…
