Your landing page could use a screenshot of the page Servus produces. Also, fantastic name and domain. Knowing word's meaning I expected IM/communication app, but most people don't so you're fine. :)
This seems like a nice, useful little app. Congrats on shipping! One question though. Have you considered a free for ever version? I know a few people that would find this a bit useful but would never pay for it, at least not now. If you had a free version minus the templates (or any other extra features you add later) then they would use it for sure. And you keep your not free version for all the fancy stuff like te…
No. I won't rule it out for the future, but right now I need to prioritize as my time is limited.
> Why not share the folder directly with your client so that they get updated versions automatically?
It's not something I need myself. Also, when I need to work with my clients in the same folder we usually just use a "native" Dropbox shared folder via Finder. At that point I don't need custom preview pages anymore. :)

I've linked to an example page ("Servus comes with a clean built-in preview page theme (example)"). It's the real thing, i.e. better than just a screenshot! ;)
How does this compare to existing competitors such as Droplr or CloudApp?
For one, no monthly fees. Unlimited uploads per day, and your upper file size limit is only dictated by your spare Dropbox space. Also, you can use your own custom themes (HTML/CSS/JS) for your preview pages.
I've built Servus to scratch my own itches I had with those services. Don't get me wrong, they're really good, hands down. They just didn't work the way I wanted, so there.

I'd suggest embedding a screenshot on your landing page so people immediately "get it". It did take a little reading to grok this concept. Also, I'd suggest a (simple) real-world example rather than "this serves as an example" which almost reads like a snarky response to people complaining it's not there :).
