4,5 GB dropbox, with beta

Dropbox is testing stuff with new betas
One new feature is "photo and video autoupload".

First foto gets ya 500 MB
When you use 500MB of photos, 500MB more free space

(till it hits 4,5GB of additional space).
Then you erase all the photos, and voilah! Free GIGS!

How to?
0) get account

it's free. And please, i translated this for you. Please use this link.
(or google dropbox, and register there )

1) GET BETA

Windows: http://dl-web.dropbox.com/u/17/Dropbox%201.3.13.exe
Mac OS X: http://dl-web.dropbox.com/u/17/Dropbox%201.3.13.dmg
Linux x86_64: http://dl-web.dropbox.com/u/17/dropbox-lnx.x86_64-1.3.13.tar.gz
Linux x86: http://dl-web.dropbox.com/u/17/dropbox-lnx.x86-1.3.13.tar.gz

2) UPLOAD PHOTOS

2.1) Create a folder named DCIM/(randomname) in a pendrive (or a memory card)
2.2) put photos in it, plug it in
2.3) Dropbox should pop up and ask if you want to upload them


But wait, it'll take ages!
Here we take advantage of the cloud.
If an item you want to upload ITS ALREADY UPLOADED BY SOMEONE ELSE
(hashes match, name match, etc.... THEN YOU DON'T UPLOAD IT!
 dropbox copies a copy into your account).


Here's the trick:
pictures of 500MB/1GB/3GB that sum 4,5GB, and compressed are like 1,5MB all.
500 Mb:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1501117/Imagenes%20Pesadas/rotoMos0_5.jpg.rar


1 GB:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1501117/Imagenes%20Pesadas/roto1GB.jpg.rar

3 GB:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1501117/Imagenes%20Pesadas/rotoMos3.jpg.rar

So download them, unrar  them into your DCIM/(randomname)/ folder.

And watch magic. In less than 5 minutes, barely 5 GB of free cloud space.
