I'm trying to make my own DIV layout.
But I want to decrease the opacity on PART of an image, not all of it. How do I do it? http://i175.photobucket.com/albums/w136/Lilyxo1/sdfsdf.jpg Look @ the top left picture of Taio, the background layer overlaps it, and makes that little square thing on the side of his face, which doesn't look good. Before, I had it, but after I save it [merged down] It became see through, for some strange reason. |

Do you still have the original PSD (un-merged?)
If so, you could put a layer mask on either the rectangle or the face layer and use that to hide the box. When you paint on the layer mask with black, that part of the layer will appear transparent. When you paint on the layer mask with white, that part of the layer will be fully opaque. Percentages work too (if you paint black with a brush on 50%, then that part of the image will be 50% transparent). Hope that helps. [By the way, Cristy, I think this might go in Graphics Help 'cause it's more of a graphics-related question. Maybe?  ]

I'd cheat - on your original PSD image, use a large soft eraser on the background image under the face.
