(1) The API request page on dropbox's website hung after clicking "allow." After I received a "no response error," I refreshed and things started working as expected.

(2) Once I received the "Creating new website" prompt, I could see files added to my dropbox. Yet I still received an "oops, something went wrong error" on brace.io. Brace.io prompted me to reselect a valentine's URL (I kept the same) and went back to "creating new website" graphic. Failed again. Refreshed.

(3) After #2 failed again following the refresh, I changed the url name after getting the "whoops something went wrong," which sent a POST request containing the old url title instead of the new one. I'm not sure if this is functioning as expected. After that hung for a minute or so, I went to #4.

(4) Finally, I tried the original URL, which prompted me to administer the page at admin.insertvalentineurlhere.brace.io. That works!

Sorry about the hassle. Thanks for the detailed report. The load from this post has revealed some issues on the brace.io account server that we are working hard to correct. Note that production urls for sites created on Brace are hosted separately (S3 and cloudfront), and shouldn't be effected by problems with the brace.io admin / account server.
