That's not a public site.Â* Try imgur.

No,Â* this is a Newsgroup.Â* Why would I try "imgur"?

THIS is a newsgroup, dropbox is a NON-PUBLIC image hosting site, and
you can't view the image without signing in.Â* Imgur allows the public
to view images.

My apologies to you, I forgot to get the link, hope this works:-

Mostly I see JPEG artefacts but the gunge looks to me like pine resin

Red detail on a blue ground is just about worst case for JPEG.
