You might want to try starting dropbox without a set DISPLAY. This will at least prevent it from displaying a icon as well as the notifications (that was what annoyed me until I found the matching prefence setting for this). I did it with a "(unset DISPLAY ; dropbox start ) &" in my ~/.Xsession. I don't know if this will also work with skype, but it might be worth trying.
