Hi tonyob!
Yes, that is correct. At the moment, it'd be only these paths.
If you need anything else, I'm here for you.Thanks heaps
I am using iCloud to back-up some of my files including iPhoto but I want more flexibility and have several hundred GIGs of videos on my computer that I would like to keep in my Dropbox backup and not take up so much space on my computer's flashdrive. How do I set-up my computer backup on dropbox to achieve that goal? I still want to keep iCloud for syncing to all my Apple devices.

Unfortunately, this isn't possible at the moment.
I would suggest that you go under our " Share an idea" section and add this there as a future feature request for other users to see and upvote.
I hope this clarifies things.
