Hi Phil, Apologies, that wasn't as clear as it possibly should have been … it was early. :) What I meant was to add the dl in front of dropbox.com as you did, and also remove the www. so your link should be as follows: httP://dl.dropbox.com And then whatever the ending part of the name is which you can leave in tact. I hope that helps some. Rachel On Apr 5, 2013, at 6:47 AM, "Phil Halton" <philh...@gmail.com> wrote:
