Don't give up hope, everyone.
I'll repost the reply I got from dropbox support.....
"Hi John,
Thank you for reaching back out.
I'm really sorry that this product update isn't what you expected. We are aware of this discussion on the forum and I have passed along your feedback to the relevant department.
Our customers' feedback is very valuable to us. Your comments will be heard; however, I cannot guarantee when and if this change is reverted.
Please feel free to write in again at any time if there's anything else I could help you with.
Other than that, I would like to thank you again for the time you devoted in providing us this feedback!"
-----------------------------------------
Dropbox are aware of this thread; they are aware of the hashtag #BringBackTheGreenTick and they are reading these posts so keep posting and using the hashtag.
As others have pointed out, only a very small fraction of dropbox users will have taken the time to come here and post their thoughts - there will be many times that number who are equally fed up with seeing the green tick/checkmark vanish from the icon but have not voiced their concerns.
If you haven't contacted dropbox support yet then can I suggest that you do. The more emails they get on top of this thread and the hashtag then the more chance of them doing something about it and giving us our green tick back. Also, remember to up-vote the opening post on this thread.
Perseverance is the key here, so let's keep up the pressure.
