You might try making a symbolic link (or even an Alias --- since TeXShop operates through the higher level OS calls rather than the Unix end of things like the TeX Distribution itself) of the file you keep in the DropBox into the ~/Library/TeXShop/Templates/ folder.

Yes, I am trying that.

I thought I stated that Lion hides the ~/Library/ folder by default and how to open it by holding down the Option Key while clicking on the Go menu in Finder.

You did, and I knew about that.  But you can't "Save as.." to that folder from within TeXShop, as far as I can tell, since the trick you talk about only works in Finder/Go.

Good Luck,
