Shared Dropbox
I want to use a Dropbox to gather photos from the participants who attended an event.
I set up the Dropbox account, and created a Dropbox to allow anyone who has the link to be able to edit the Dropbox.
I copied the link.
I logged out of my account.
I opened a browser and pasted the link in the address window.
The link took me to the Dropbox.
However, it required a sign-in that required an email address.
Is there a way a way to allow the person to upload photos without requiring the person to enter an email address?

I don't want the participates to be subjected to emails from Dropbox.
Is there a way the participants can upload photos without needed to set up an account?
I suspect there is not a way to do that.
Did you look at the Requests option I gave you? That does exactly what you are looking for

I set up the request and the folder shows that I am the only one who has access to the folder.
I paid for this dropbox and I can't get it to work.
I don't want to waste anymore time on this.
How do I cancel the dropbox payment so I am not charged any more.
