Icon Status size Desktop app

I'm running the Dropbox app on a Mac. The status Icons for the files in my Dropbox app (not the icons for the file itself) are super small. Is it possible to make the status Icon larger in size?

    Thanks for getting back to me, JGBen. 

    From your screenshot, it looks like the two folders are set to be previewed as a list. 

    If you select the icons option from the very top of your Finder, you should be able to see a larger preview of the file/folder and syncing icons. 

    From there, you should also be able to make both file/folder and syncing icons larger by pressing Command+J to customize their size and the spacing between each item. 

    Let me know if this helps and I'll make sure to get back to you as soon as possible!
