Layers
Photoshop layers are like sheets of stacked acetate. You can see
through transparent areas of a layer to the layers below. You move a
layer to position the content on the layer, like sliding a sheet of
acetate in a stack. You can also change the opacity of a layer to
make content partially transparent.
