Are we able to post pics from a Dropbox folder?

Not working. Am I doing it wrong, or is it just impossible?

I think Dropbox has phased out the ability to hotlink directly to images like that. Even though it appears to point directly to a .jpg, when I right-click and view in a new tab it shows the image on a page.

Impossible. Has to be from a permanent image URL hosted on a public website.

Well shite. I love how Dropbox automatically uploads pics from my S3. Which web-based photo site do you recommend I use?

Avatars and sig pics have to be hosted on approved sites, but for posting in threads I believe images hosted on Google+ will work, and you can turn on instant upload on your S3.
