Hello, some new features that seem to really irk me me when I'm trying to use my account.
Complexity:
I just want a basic interface (nothing special) where I can see/share/interact with the files...

I am a DropBox Dependant User and I appracite an expansion of a product I really use. BUT please have the common sence curtisy to not make the new reideration so different that its now taking time to learn how to use it, when I all I want to is work with my files. Not to take time out of my day to creat an account here to tell you to use commen sense curtisy.
That annoying white space on the right where I can view my files. You know what? I used to click on a file to open it and I could view it. Now I have to click to view in that annoying while space and then click on it again to open the file. How is this better??
All the features in that annoying white space, inclusive of having that annoying white space should be optional. If I am working on my own with my own files that window terrorory serves best to view more files and scroll less. Add the option feature. This is not a request, it's asking you to use think of your user as a varied group of people. Just add it.
To reideratwe what Joseph H.23 said, "These things are getting dastardly annoying. I know some users really want this feature, but please give me an option to disable globally."
And please, show that you care about your users and reply.
Dont be as annoying as that white space. Have I mentioned that the white space is ANNOYING!

Now having used the new Dropbox I came to realize that it is still annoying, but I have found more things to be annoyed by. The name of files get broken up mid wrod making them hard to find considering I use the same file for each project as it keeps me orgamized. This wasnt the case in the older version or any other file saving folders or files I use.
Also, I cant hightlight mutiple folder at once to move them.
Having the icon on my desktop (Mac OS) menu bar stay blue when everything else is black just makes you look desprite and is a further annoyance. I know you are there. Stop staying blue like a desperite start-up might do.
And please please please allow for the calapsing of the preview window on the left and the blue banner on the right with Dropbox and Starred on the right. I didnt have this in the old version and I have yet to use either now. It just takes up space that could be used to look at my files. And if I working on my own then the whole feature become mute. I can and do share via other means. I dont need or what this preview.

Agree with OP - complexity - don't want bells and whistles, just want a file sharing app.
Definitely don't want reminder emails to use it. Stop annoying me. I might be able to turn it off somewhere, but why should I have to?
And badges at all - let alone for log-in on to these forums - what is this, kindegarten? Edit - got another one for this post - how immature can you get? - cringe
