I have done quite a bit of work with dropbox uploading using the bash script and dropbox and other python api/sdk libraries https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/python . The big problem is that you have to setup a dropbox project and this is not intuitive, so requires detailed instructions. I also ran across the problem of syncing changed files and yes you would need to keep track of snapshots of changes to sync or do like google drive and do a comparison of files to determine changes prior to sync. I have not seen too much interest in a dropbox feature so I have not done pursued this feature. Wiki has a message about dropbox https://github.com/pageauc/pi-timolo/wiki/sync.sh---Automate-gdrive-Uploads-and-More
Let me know your feelings on this.

It allows for recursive directory upload. But there sadly is no check for uploading changed files only. This however could be solved by writing uploaded files with their last change date to a txt file and crosschecking before uploading. Or alternatively a List could be created where files get added, after being created by timolo, that will then be wiped on the next sync.
