Force render issues (raw=1) and shared links won't work for hosting.
images were perfect on all browsers until yesterday afternoon - what is the fix or is this a dropbox issue?
We are rolling out a fix for issues with raw=1 and dl=1 links that started recently. Please try again and let us know if it's still not working.
Same here

Not able to download the files from Shared Links.
Usually the shared link ends with dl=0 by changing it to dl=1 downloads the file directly, but from today its not downloading!!
I know many of them are facing this situation.
Anybody know what is the reason behind it ?

They have (on quite a few occasions now) done things which have stopped things rendering on websites and response has always been the same - Dropbox isnt a hosting platform, its a tool to collaborate and share
This is very distressing, as I imagine others know all too well. I don't want to leave Dropbox but I have to have image hosting. Does anybody have a recommendation for an all-purpose storage and sync cloud service that supports image hosting? I need a terabyte or two of storage. I don't mind paying a nominal fee. Alternatively, is there a middle-man tool that can retrieve a Dropbox image and provide the hosting service?
