I don't think it matters where you place it, as long as you can find it again.
I am assuming this is just a template you plan on re-opening and using as base for future edits, not as something that the application will use programatically.

That is why I asked if it was with the Organizer. I am not well versed with it so I wouldn't want to venture too far in that direction.

Png files are just that a file. They are just floating individual files that you can use over and over again. You can file it anywhere you want. I make loads of pngs and have a file just for them. A png is something that you don't use on it's own. It's for being used in conjunction with something else. I believe it has to be in the editor. Let me know if I'm wrong or I have missed something here.

As Ray and rosiegirl posted, you can save the png to a location of your choice.

I believe it has to be in the editor.

You can work with png files in Organizer just like any other image.

Ray - PNGs are what us mac users get when we use the screen capture (shift-open apple(command)-4) - so I think it's just another picture file.

PNG stands for Portable Network Graphics. It is a compressed image file format similar to JPEG and is intended primarily to replace the GIF format. PNG's are up to 30% smaller than GIFs. PNG-24 version supports 24-bit colour.
