Might be asking to much, but is it possible to get a direct link to the file?

Otherwise programs like HipChat are unable to auto-embed the photo, because its HTML dressed as an image. For example: https://www.dropbox.com/s/caha7e5v0js24mj/dropbox-hipchat-em...

I'd be happy to add a query string manually, i.e., https://www.dropbox.com/s/caha7e5v0js24mj/dropbox-hipchat-em...

Imgur.com does a good job with this.

Dropbox has pretty harsh bandwidth limits for files that are hosted publicly, mainly to avoid becoming a cheap & lazy webserver for everyone to use. They additionally have the difficulty that the photo could change at any moment -- so photo URLs from their CDN have all this complicated versioning:

https://photos-1.dropbox.com/pi/2048x1536/UoBdS4hHgypeXF5Ge8...

I guess my point is that it would be great, but you can have imgur or Dropbox -- not both.
