Sorry. Affinity Photo.

Doing that now. I also love learning by doing.:-) But I feel like I'm fumbling around quite a bit more than I would with a few simple pointers/diagrams, and if such a doc/tut already exists, why re-invent the wheel?

Apologies if this question has been asked prior. I did check through the FAQs and Patrick Connor's lengthy list of links in the 'A Guide to Learning Affinity Software post.' Not wanting a tutorial here, just the most-specific link(s) will be fine - I'll do my homework.

I'm on a 10-year-old iMac 27" desktop running Sierra. I just bought Affinity this week. I opened and listened to a few of the well-done Basics tutorials. 
I have been using Photoshop CS5 Extended (also 10 years old) to make fairly basic flyers for classes I offer. Most are made up of nothing more than a nice full-page background image with a few thumbnail photo layers and various-size/font text layers arranged on top. The only other functions I use are the text effects (Drop Shadow, Outer Glow, Gradient Tool) to make the text more readable over the background image, the quick-selection, brush and crop tools, and occasional hue-saturation-exposure edits on the imported photos. That's it. 

As quickly as possible, I'd like to be able to import any of those PSD flyers into Affinity, and perform these same basic functions in Affinity - just select each element like I can in Photoshop's Layers sidebar, and start moving them, deleting them or applying basic adjustments. Since it's unlikely I will be using any of the more advanced layer-properties functions anytime soon, I was hoping to find a simple 'corollary' tutorial that essentially says, if you are used to performing these basic functions in Photoshop, here's where you'll find the same basic layer adjustments in Affinity, once you've imported your PSD file. 

This assumes, of course, that the imported file maintains the same isolated layers as it did when still in Photoshop.

So, with the hope of not reading through hours of links/tutorials that don't apply to my basic flyer composition, I'm hoping someone can point out just the specific links to learn this simple comparison between the two, thanks.
