Select layer you want to make transparent, then in top right corner of Layers panel type 0 in text field next to Opacity, or click triangle on right side of Opacity to expand slider and drag it to the left till you see 0%.

Every new blank layer created in Photoshop is also transparent (Layer > New > Layer...).

Opacity is the transparency of your layer that is featured.

Higher opacity will make the layer more opaque. Lower opacity will make the layer more transparent. Hope this helps :)

What is transparent in Photoshop?

You can create new blank layer which is transparent by clicking Create a new layer (page) icon in LAYERS palette or from Layer > New > Layer (Ctrl + Shift + N). To make existing layer transparent or with some level of transparency (0% - transparent, 100% - opaque) use Opacity slider (or type number in text field) in top right corner in LAYERS palette. Another way to make layer transparent is to remove its fill using Fill slider which is below Opacity (click triangle on right side to appear slider). Difference between this two methods which may seems to you as exactly the same is because Photoshop does not treat layer effect as layer fill so you can for example add Drop Shadow layer effect to an object (circle for example) and setting Fill to 0% will remove object fill (will make it invisible) but drop shadow will still be visible, on the other hand setting Opacity to 0% will hide (make transparent) and object and layer effect.


How do I change where new layers are created by default on photoshop?

Whenever I create a new layer on Photoshop, it's always created above the active layer. Is it possible to change that behavior and make it so that whenever I create a new layer it's created below the active layer instead? My objective with this is so that whenever I import an image it goes below the previous one and not above.
