Hi Jeremy,

Thanks man, for trying to help out so quickly.

*From TiddlyWiki.com*
It is funny in a way, as I tried to follow your explanation on 
TiddlyWiki.com:
“Select Dropbox's "Share Link" option to obtain a public URL for the file.”
That is why I shared the file, thinking that that TW5 would “read” the image
from the image directory, like it works locally, both file + image 
directory being 
in the same higher directory. Alas, it was not to be.

I tried out your suggestion of sharing a folder. (Interestingly the 
share-folder-URL 
that you get is a bit different from the Share-file-URL. The URL-part “/s/” 
has 
changed into “/sh/”. ) Anyway

The result was again negative, as I get the 404 page from DropBox.
If I choose the other option: “Invite people to collaborate” then you get 
the content 
of the folder and not the opened TW5 file.

*Public Folder Option Read me text*











*"The Public folder lets you easily share single files in your Dropbox. Any 
file you put in this folder gets its own Internet link that you can share 
with others -- even non-Dropbox users!Step 1:  Drop a file into the Public 
folder.Step 2:  Right-click this file, then choose Dropbox > Copy Public 
Link. This copies an Internet link to your file that you can paste 
anywhere: emails, instant messages, blogs, etc.That's it! To share your 
file, just send the link to a friend.Happy Dropboxing!- The Dropbox 
TeamP.S. You can only link to actual files within your Public folder, not 
to folders. For help with sharing files visit 
http://www.dropbox.com/help/16*";

Folder- way doesn't work. So sadly nothing seems to working. 

*Present Option?*
So the present option for me seems to be to embed all images to be used in 
the TW5 file. 
As I wil need quite pictures that might bloat the file quite a bit. Present 
estimate is about 
120 - 150 (very rough estimate) could be more.

Jeremy, would that create in any way a problem knowing that eventually, in 
the farther future, 
I want it to be a website under its own domain name? Speed problems. 
loading time problems, 
whatever? I value your advice very much as you are the TW-Kahuna.

*Further Options*
How the heck are others doing it? Need anyway to check on Tobias as I seem 
to remember 
another thread where he presented a solution, I think.

Jed, any comments, perhaps?
Salut! Edm.
