Hey GhostPlaysDead,

 

Welcome to the Dropbox Community! Glad to hear you're back up and running, and thanks again to James S.5 for taking the time to post this workaround. If you have any other tips or tricks relating to photos be sure to visit our photographers group and post them there, or join the group to see how other photography enthusiasts are working with Dropbox.

 

Thanks, and have a great day!
