> I get that in a normal company, the finances might in fact dictate that the company can no longer support the user base with the revenue collected.

Although I never really used Picasa, Dropbox's decision to shutdown Mailbox and, to a lesser extent, Carousel, was particularly upsetting for me. Although in the case of Mailbox it was more due to a decline in acquiring new users after the buyout [1].

I'm not too bummed about it now as I've found better alternatives.

They also decided to shut down Skitch which I use on a daily basis. Lately I've been looking for an alternative (on Windows) and I think I will go for Greenshot http://getgreenshot.org/

Look into Snip from Microsoft (https://mix.office.com/Snip) and ShareX (https://github.com/ShareX/ShareX) for a couple other alternatives.

Thanks, both Snip and ShareX are very nice, I'm now testing them.
