notes: Download/Copy this python script onto your Raspberry Pi https://gist.github.com/daryllukas/9892429. You may rename the file to anything you like. Place it in the home folder so it's easy to find. Open the code and edit lines 9 and 10 to add you DropBox API credentials. Also, edit the last line (line 58) to change how frequent the Pi takes pictures.

## Test the program
