How to remove the Dropbox Icon from Menubar
I recently installed dropbox on my macbook and there is a dropbox icon on the menu bar on top always. The only way to remove it seems to be be to completely quit the stop which will stop the app from syncing in real time.
Does dropbox provide an option to hide this icon from the menu bar in someway. I personally feel its quite annoying

No. The icon is used to access the Dropbox application, and to show you the current status of your files.

Some of us may not need to always see the current status of our files in the menubar.
