The problems begin once you have accessed the file --- if you get lucky, your system does the right thing: in this case, run the animated .GIF in your browser. If not, you have to tinker in some unpreductable fashion, as Henry and I both discovered. WFL On 8/28/15, Mike Speciner <ms@alum.mit.edu> wrote:
As near as I can tell, if you place a file in your Public dropbox subdirectory and copy the public link, then it is directly accessible to anyone using that link.

Downloading this gif still required:
1. Turning on javascript (aka p0wnscript) for dropbox.com 2. Turning on javascript for dropboxstatic.com 3. Turning on javascript for ajax.googleapis.com
4. And then going through a dialog to say that I didn't want to sign up for Dropbox.
5. And then finally clicking on a "download" button.
Remember, you need "?dl=1" instead of "?dl=0" at the end of the URL below in order to get the damn thing to download immediately.
