^indeed. Dropbox have fallen a long way down my list of esteem as a result.

Bengt - Thanks, that's great news about the 'raw=1' option.

yep, "raw=1" seems to solve it. At least for now ::) ...

Yes and no. Basically you are right, as far as you still are allowed to share files/get public links from dropbox. The main muddle is that every previously shared link - to specific files, not just to the public folder - is invalid today. Which means that literally everything I (and many with me) have shared on e.g. this forum, is gone.

I haven't changed my links and they all still work... although, they were outside the Public folder to begin with so maybe that has something to do with it?

Really?! Does that mean that you could create "public" files earlier, files that was not located in the public folder? I missed that... If I get you right: Does that mean that you have a few old "dropbox-shared-photos" (etc.) right here at this forum and your photos still show up in the threads? If so, it twists my brain a bit...

...and to have it said: I gladly stand corrected if so. But my posts are still ... gone.

Cheers

Also, I think it's just Dropbox's public folder that is gone, i.e. the ability for people to open the folder and browse through your files.

Thanks. That's helpful (will start using 'raw=1'), but still doesn't seem to allow one to embed a dropbox picture directly into a forum post.

Yay, this works too. again, check my post above; the photo of the green guitar is posted this way (the "add-raw=1-method").

... maybe a solution. Check my post above^^ (the photo of the drill press), where I finally succeeded to direct-link to a picture uploaded to my google drive account. I used this thing:

Cool. I didnt know about iDrive. Maybe have to check out wordpress too(?).

Im actually... maybe not really mad or pissed off, but a bit dissapointed about dropbox quitting this public thing. To me it was a winning concept, more simple than anything else. I dont feel like setting up a webplace on my own, i just wanna share a song and some pics now n then. Sort of...

well well...

Hey folks... Long time no see etc!

I just recently noticed this as well; literally everything of my shared stuff spread out there is located on my dropbox... What is the best new solution? I have a "fairly passive" google drive-account as well; i try to post a "dummy-picture" here just to see if it shows up.

And hey... hope all is good at this very place... despite my absence:)




EDIT: heh, that picture didn't work huh?? Trying direct link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B6htnjjuKl-LYlU1TGdlOFdnc2M/view
Edit again: ...trying trying...

Open Discussion / Less is more!
May 14, 2015, 06:29:37 AM
Last weekend i teamed up with Albin at Moody Sounds' (https://moodysounds.se/) monter at Fuzz Guitar Show (http://fuzz.se/fuzzguitarshow/english/info), a big guitar excibition here in sweden.

Among other stuff, he presented a brand new design, which most likely will be very popular indeed! I don't know about the pricetag yet, but somewhere in the range 3000-3500 USD should be reasonable i think.

Less is More ==> Least is Most!

Have a look and drool!

I should add up some info here too.

Since some time back, some of my designs are sold as kits and/or finnished boxes at Moody Sounds, https://moodysounds.se/ in sweden.

I refuse to beleive that there is something "wrong" or bad with your hardware at all. As long as its matched (mic level output into mic level input etc) it's all good enough.

Shure SM57 is a good mic, though im not sure its the best (but again, not bad!) choice for recording acoustic guitar, as it is extremely directional. You can get a decent condenser mic (some 100USD) to play with. It will require phantom power (another 100USD, see hints earlier in thread) though.

But before you buy new gear: Generally, mic placement means a LOT. I dont know how you placed the SM57, but  aim at 12th fret and go CLOSE to the instrument for a start! Play with microphone angle too. The mentioned condenser picks up more so you can back off a bit and get some room into the recording.

The software used means nothing in quality. Every software today can do everything.
