Adobe Help Needed

[LeHah]

I'm using Adobe Photoshop and I'm trying to make specific parts of the image see-through/transparent/whatever. I really suck with anything by Adobe, so I could use some pointers. Anyone?

I'd search the help files for 'opacity'.

umm
eraser..

Heh. Perhaps I'm not clear enough, Filler?

Heres the idea: I'm doing some tests to see if I can make a Sci-Fi comic strip. I have a program called Universe that does incredible space renderings. Basicly, I'd like to be able to draw a person looking out a window, and the ship they're in... but have it so the window is "clear" and looking out on what I made in the Universe program.

This requires me to make the backdrop, draw the art by hand, scan it and then paste it over the space art.

Now, about those windows...

Just put them on seperate layers and delete the part you want to be transparant...
