This will not work. Dropbox has now stopped providing the public folder for new users. The existing users will continue to have the public folder but people who sign up now will not get it. Dropbox is promoting the "share link" feature for sharing content. New users can right click on any file in their Dropbox folder and then click on share link in the Dropbox sub menu. The web browser will open. Copy the URL of that page and send it to your friends. They will be able to access it using this link.
