Grid View For Shared Links
For people accessing a shared link on Box, without having been invited to collaborate, there ought to be an option to view files/folders/etc in "Grid View". This is available on mobile devices and when you are a collaborator -- but if you're accessing a shared link from a computer, this option is not available.
I needed to share a folder containing several thousand photos with an email chain I was a part of. I wanted the recipients to only be able to "view and download" so sharing with a link was more appropriate than inviting them all to collaborate on the folder. However, the fact that those folks were only able to really look at a single photo at a time proved very difficult.
If the grid view feature that's available on mobile could also be added to the regular Box site, that would be great!

Similar to this, it would be fantastic to have the option to make "Grid View" the auto view for those viewing from a shared link.
We often share very image-dense folders with others, and it would be a much greater user experience for these users to see the contents of these folders as images from the moment they click the shared link.
