Dropbox StaffHey Thijxx - thanks for bringing this to our attention.
Can you just clarify if you're noticing this on an incognito or private browsing window with no plugins or extensions running as well?

Could you also clarify if this happens only when browsing the Photos page or if it's affecting other folders of yours as well?
Other folders load fine except the photo preview at the top of the page called 'Suggested from your activity'
