Dropbox "Export this file to Gallery"

OK sorry if this is random but it's been bugging me for the last 30 minutes and so I thought I'd ask some of you smart folks here: I have an HTC One X with Dropbox installed. I also have a photo library in my Dropbox "Photos" folder. I wanted to export some of the photos in there to an app on my phone that can be accessed by the Wallpaper settings app, so I chose to hit "Export --> Gallery" in the Dropbox menu. The phone then appears to establish a network connection and (file upload progress bar appears for a few seconds) upload the file somewhere. None of the photos exported this way actually appear in my "Gallery" app, but I wonder where they were uploaded to instead??
 
On my phone "save to SD card" is the first option when I tap export but I know the One X has no SD card slot. What is the first option when you tap export? There should be an option to save it to the phone's memory.

Exporting to gallery basically just opens the picture in the app but it doesn't actually save it anywhere.

Thanks much. That makes sense.
