          You can use the Export Layers to Files script that ships with Photoshop to save the layers as jpg files. Just turn off the layers you don't want saved and check visible layers only in the dialog.

           

          If you right click on a layer you can choose Duplicate Layer.. from the popup menu. That will give you the option of creating a new document from the layer and name it. If you want more options that just the name you will need to have a script. If you post your request in the scripting forum, I'll be glad to help.
