You might see that the Dropbox Community team have been busy working on some major updates to the Community itself! So, here is some info on what’s changed, what’s staying the same and what you can expect from the Dropbox Community overall.

Bring back the green 'synced' checkmark in the system tray.
In my Windows system tray (next to the clock), Dropbox used to show that it was fully synced by showing a green check-mark over the Dropbox icon. This was really helpfull.
If Dropbox was offline, ...
Yes......but the green tick back please, at least as a user option to have it!
I get it that the status is still 'shown' by the state of the icon, but it's not as obvious and it's clear that many other users, like me, appreciate the simplicity of seeing the green tick showing it's synced: one or two replies from Rich about this are somewhat patronising, which I don't appreciate.
There's also a discrepancy here isn't there? The tick to show sync is complete has been removed from the icon...but still shows on individual files!
It would have been nice to communicate the change to us in time too as I spent a long time trying to fix what was 'broken' when it disappeared, including reinstalling dropbox and unlinking it....over 2 hours' work in all including allowing re-sync just because no-one at dropbox thought to tell us (or ASK us!) beforehand.
