Removal of duplicate photos in my dropbox photo library
I somehow uploaded several hundred photos from my iphone to dropbox. Not sure how I did it, but now I see a lot of duplicate photos in dropbox (carousel).

Once you've connected Dropbox to your computer with the Dropbox app, you can sync the photos and then use this guide to clean up the local folder. All changes will then be sent back to Dropbox and "Voila!" you've removed your duplicates.

It even has functionality to loosen the matches and find rotated images. Fancy. It found that over 10% of my photos were duplicates, and deleted the smaller resolution versions of each.
