Every time it "gave me more space", it told me I now have 5G...which is what I had before I started.  :(

The only thing I can think of is that sometimes it rounds the number. But if you got through the entire thing and you're still at 5Gb, that's definitely a problem. :-/

was about to post this when i noticed this thread. if you complete all the steps, you will get 1GB of Dropbox space. i see that Deozaan has posted the walkthrough so there is no reason not to complete them now.. :)

Yeah, it worked. Thanks for bring it to my attention and of course to the original poster of the walkthrough. Without it i would have been lost. :)

Greetings

Yeah, got to have mad respect for the first few to complete this thing. There are at least a couple of the puzzles I would never have solved doing this thing honest.
