Our members post some dropbox images, but the don’t seem to show.
What do we need to do to make those images apper ?

Dropbox really doesn’t like it when you use them as an image hosting service, for the record…

I know. We need to educate our members.
But this seems to be an function in Apple ?

If the dropbox link is on a line by itself we already onebox it properly (irrelevant of dl=0 parameter) as per:
