Do you use dropbox??

[Jamin_00]

I just created an account and have downloaded it on to my system.

How do I let someone else get access to the files on there. Surely I dont give them my login details? Can I send them a link to the files I want them to have access to??

Hi Ben, log onto Dropbox on the web and your folders should show there too. Then click on share link and enter email address for people you want to share with. Simples!

You add files to your public folder, once it has uploaded (synced) you then right click on the file and you get a link to the file. Email this to whoever you are sending the file to, easy and good.

use a public folder & place pic's in it, give file a name then use that address, Dave beat me to it.

Sweet, cheers guys :)

Will that share that folder everytime its updated or just for that one time? if it shared everytime I updated it that would be perfect :)

Think I got this one, create a shared file and it will if they have a dropbox account too.

There are a couple of ways.
From the tray icon, Launch Dropbox Website. hover over the folder you want to share and you'll see a paperclip icon appear, click this, and you'll have the option to invite them, which prompts them to also sign up, for which you get bonus storage space, or you can simply email a link that's also on that page.
Alternatively, from the dropbox page look for the sharing rainbow icon on the left.

Make sure you create separate folders for different groups of files, that way you can share only heli stuff with the boys but personal stuff with family etc.

.. and yes, it's a live share, updates from you or the sharers are distributed

People you share folders have continued access to the folder until you stop them.
