Cats. You just can't go wrong with cat photos.

Edited, for the umpteenth time, to see if I can get links to work. Finally! Thanks for the referral to Photobucket.

No comments. No captions. Just cats. By the way, these guys are brothers, about 1 1/2 years old.

These guys are brothers, too. Five years old now and couldn't have more different personalities.

I don't know much about dropbox but is it possible they do not allow you to share links to your dropbox? I see that the address is https rather than the usual http which means it's a secure login and we the people don;t have secure login rights to your dropbox account.

just looked it up and they allow it but you have to get the link correctly from them:

How do I link to a file or folder?
« Back to Help Center

Files or folders in your Dropbox folder can be shared, instantly. All you have to do is select the file and then select Share link from the Dropbox menu. Once you do, you can send the link to anyone over email, IM, text message...you name it. Friends who click the link will get an instant preview of the file or folder through their browser.

Note: If you share a link to a video, the recipient will be able to watch up to 15 minutes of it on the preview page. For longer videos, the recipient will need to download the file to see all of it.



instructions for various methods here: https://www.dropbox.com/help/20/en


eta: I just pasted one of your links directly into a new browser window and could see your beautiful kitties just fine. Not sure why it's not working from DU.

I thought the same thing about the https.

I'm not sure what was going on, but at least on Photobucket they give you five different links depending on where you're posting. Of course, much of the planet probably already knows this, but it seems I didn't get the memo.

Now that I've discovered the secret, there's no telling what I might do to bore readers here.

I don't understand.

We have three sisters; two look very much like your boys, but there's no white anywhere on the two long-haired girls; they're silver tabby and orange tabby only. Their sister, on the other hand, is a short-haired white and orange tabby.

His head is on the other side of his brother (I think). I know they each have one head, but they sure can twist themselves around. These two guys were from a litter of four, but we could only take two If we took all four, we'd overdose on cuteness.

He has a face that reminds me of my late Tabby (similar markings too but Tabby was not a longhair)
