What's the easiest way to upload to eBay, Facebook, gum-tree, pinterest and other apps?

i am having problems integrating my drop box account with other platforms like ebay facebook gumtree pinterest etc

i want to establish dropbox as my hub of operations for images and easily access this library to send to other platforms

example today i wanted to upload images to sell an item on ebay - i go to the 'add photo from pc - or mobile' - i got to my file explorer which has drop box files - right click on the gallery which has the images i need to view the photos - then tick the photos to upload to ebay 

it seems i am missing a procedure because i've tried with ebay gumtree and fb and in all cases no image is recognised or then appears on the listing

what do i need to do or what am i missing to upload the images from the drop box file?

    Hi Jonathan Rolfe, welcome to our Community! 

     

    It seems you're trying to upload some Dropbox files of yours, to other, third-party apps. 

     

    When you say that "in all cases no image is recognized on the listing" do you mean that you can't find your Dropbox files when browsing, or that after you select them nothing happens?

     

    If you meant something else, let me know. I'd also love some screenshots -just make sure none of your personal info is displayed there- in order for me to have a visual.

     

    Keep me posted!
