If you put an APK file on your SD card, and then install the application from that APK, then yes you can delete the file on your SD afterwards.

yes you can...
If u downloaded the apk off the web and not the market then u can delete the apk file that is stored on your sd card after u install the app. If u install your new app and it creates a new folder in ur sd card then I recommend u keep the folder there cuz the app will probably store info into that folder.

@teejay is correct. Once a .apk is installed you can delete it from the SDcard.

Ok so i sort of made my own rom for myself to use i removed all stock launchers etc etc, i wanted to use launcher 7 as default laucher, not the se one. but when i full wipe my phone it deletes it as its a downloaded app which then leaves my phone without a launcher, so how do i build it into the system like adw is in the cm roms? so it dosnt wipe when i clear all data on my phone. Thanks in advance.
Edit: I would release this rom to public but its only based on 2.1.1.a.0.6 and most people prefer to use Floyo, Hackdroid etcetc. It dosnt have any extra features its just how i like it with all the crap removed lol, Different framework. Its just the launcher bit whats doing me lol.
install the application, then move it from /data/app to /system/app using root explorer...
restart your phone, it should works..
Ok thanks ill try that as soon as I get back from dentist

Sorry, you asked for the apk's. If you have trouble with ES or Root Explorer like Zanderman said, just flash this zip in CWM.

Thanks again !
Any chance you can re-link the Android keyboard? Mediafire is saying it can't process that file request. The others work find.
Thanks!

I wont be at my PC until this evening so I can't repost the Android keyboard link until then, but the zip file above will flash both keyboards. You can delete the Samsung keyboard from inside the zip before flashing it, or from your system/app directory afterwards if you don't want it. Or you can extract whichever keyboard from the zip and push it to system/app.

Where can I get Android market for CM7?
When I installed update it just dissapeared.
I found few versions of market but they aren't working.
Plz help.
Thnx.
Install the faster gbapps zip file which is on the CM7 thread and reboot. I think just rebooting will make the market reappear aswell.

why don't you just push it to system/app? or make a flashable zip then flash all the apps that you want to become system apps.

Not to step on toes--
But, if you haven't got it or not up on adb/installing apps--here is a flashable zip for you or anyone--
Forget where I got it--maybe GoldenEye Dev--so nandroid first
But, I flashed it twice on GoldeEye roms
