You might see that the Dropbox Community team have been busy working on some major updates to the Community itself! So, here is some info on what’s changed, what’s staying the same and what you can expect from the Dropbox Community overall.

Why does Dropbox always make a .zip file when downloading?
Why does Dropbox make a .zip file when downloading jpg images? Jpgs are already compressed so zipping them when downloading only serves to create an extra step. When I used to send print jobs via Dropbox I always uploaded a .zip archive so fonts, mac postscript particularly, did not lose there resource info. Using dropbox to share images takes more time and steps because of this .zip process.
Is there a way to turn that off and download jpgs are is that the way Dropbox always works?
I use a browser, not going to use an app that can change preferences on my computer.
Thanks
