Hi Eden,
I have no difficulty with Drop Box, but notice that sometimes it's awkward
picking up Sendspace files unless both sender and recipient are using the
paid-for service. I also notice the frequency with which people share files,
and get responses from others saying: "I've tried to get this and still
can't get the download because..." If I had my way, I'd be using drop box
over Sendspace everytime, because the platform looks more secure and you
don't ever get taken to cluttered pages.
Best,
Clive

Hi Clive,
In Dropbox just put it in the "Public" folder and under application menu
click "copy public link" and it is in your clipboard automatically. Just use
ctrl v in your message to place it in the message.
Regards
Aedan.

I can't fathom out why people don't use Dropbox more.
1: Drag file into dropbox folder.
2: Right click on file and select "share dropbox link".
3: CTRL-V (ie: paste) the link, which is now in the clipboard, into the
email.
3 familiar actions, no spyware.
