Dropbox presents photos as a thumbnailed directory by default. If you
double click on a thumbnail you get an image displayed that fills most
of the browser window, with navigation controls directly below and other
options in a small pictograph menu on the bottom left of the window with
the file name on the bottom right. The thumbnails are very small, but
they do offer a minimal gallery format for each folder.
The issues are the thumbnails are very small and there is no real
control of how the image appears it's just the image file displayed on a
black background with the controls in while at the bottom of the screen.
You can however use pretty much any gallery software that will run on
the client browser to control how the image displays. I much prefer to
roll my own HTML, and others use java based gallery software, but for
some purposes the default works fine.

done a fantastic job. Here's the Concorde with its proud owner:

Hi Chris. Curious about your use of Dropbox. Can you set up albums? Can you get
thumbnails of the photos in the albums?
I’m photo documenting an interesting youth development project in the community
I worked in before retiring. I need to put photos up on the web every week, and
had planned to do that to a dedicated Flickr page. But your post here made me
curious about Dropbox, which might be more accessible to the folks with whom
I’m working.
Regards,
