Yes, this is exactly what I did. Denny sent the link a bit earlier. But this is good info for others that might run into this. Thanks, Bob

It turns out the version of Dropbox doesn't matter. New accounts created after some time in early October don't get the public folder by default. Instead, you can share links. If you want the public folder, though, do the following: https://www.dropbox.com/enable_public_folder, then click on the "enable public folder" button on the screen. Next you need to verify your email address by clicking on "Send email" button on the pop up, check your inbox and click on the verification link sent by dropbox, "your public folder is now enabled" message will be shown on your Dropbox account. If you think education is difficult, try being stupid !
