How did you create the symlink? Do you have a jailbroken device?
If you have picture downloaded to your local file tree, you can tap-and-hold the file and select "Preview" to view the picture or tap on the button on the right side of each file in the file transfer screen and choose "Preview".
I use the official Dropbox iOS SDK: http://www.dropbox.com/developers/reference/sdk
It does use the REST API.
This if fixed for the next update.

I use the official Dropbox API. It uses HTTPS for things like login and downloading files. It uses HTTP for less critical things like loading metadata and sending commands to create folders or move files. I don't intend to change that.
