Hi. Ive decided I no longer want to use dropbox. If I wish to attach a pic from gallery to email etc I cant select because its in a dropbox album and other problems. Im not that tech savvy.
If I close my drop box account what will happen to my pics in my gallery on handset. Will the just revert back to an album titled camera? Thanjs for any help.

I can only guess you have a really good reason to close the DropBox account but I do wonder why.

If you stop data and WiFi and can still find the actual files somewhere like the DCIM folder, you're good to go. The images in Gallery are only cached images of file located elsewhere on you phone so if they are somewhere else they would be removed from Gallery but would come back without showing they were synced. You might need to clear the Gallery cache and data and regenerate the thumbnails.
