 your image is then ready to post to flickr or wherever and/or import back into a finished folder in apeture 

Jeff, I read someplace you could make elements 11 or any other program your external editor in aperture preferences and then the file goes back and forth between both programs without having to make folders, etc. 
I have to get someone to explain this "layers" to me, I have no idea what it is.
