Dons - I wasn't sure where to stick this as there isn't a forum for OSX,Windows, Linux and Mobiles.......

Dropbox are giving up to 5GB of extra storage to people who try a new beta build with it's automatic picture upload feature. Details on the link above.

Sweet, bit of effort, but worth it.

Not really...I just left my phone recording a 1080p video clip of the wall. I then uploaded it overnight in one go!

Nice idea.

I was able to delete it straight away once I had my credit of new storage!

I can't work out how to do this, I have download the beta version and plugged in my iphone and camera and neither give me any option to use dropbox to upload, what am I doing wrong?

Are you using windows?

When you plug in the phone or camera you should get an option to import into Dropbox. You might have things set to automatically do something else instead.
