Hey Dropbox,
Just to add my feedback:
Just went through this with one of my clients. I sent them a link, they emailed me back asking me to send a file where they don't have to sign up for dropbox. I had to reverse engineer what was happening by using the link in a private browser window where I wasn't logged into dropbox.
The problem is the 'Or continue with download' link is very obscure and just a line of underlined type - very secondary to the large blue 'Continue' button. This should at least be a clear blue 'Download' button.
Would look more professional and not waste time on back and forth between myself and client.
They happen to use Digital Pigeon - when they send me stuff I click the download button once and it starts downloading. I'm not taken to a login screen.
Thanks
