File (Pic) Upload without providing Name and Email
Hi everyone. I would like to create a folder that people can upload pictures to for a party. I plan on using the "File Request" feature in Dropbox and provide the link via QR code, but would prefer...

As Mark said, file requests do require a name and email when uploading.
However, the names are just for differentiating who uploaded files to your account. It doesn't need to be correct or even a name. Likewise, with the email, this is only for their benefit so they know the file is uploaded with a confirmation email. You won't know their email from the upload.
If a person is already signed into their Dropbox account, then the details would already be filled in, and can't be changed. To avoid this, they can access the file request from a private browsing/incognito window.
If you need any more details, feel free to message back!
I understand the replies thus far, and the reasoning behind them.
This is still a problem. Dropbox staff, please resolve this problem by making name and email optional.
I would purchase a subscription if Dropbox had this one feature.
