Heeeelp!

I tried to follow a tutorial by throw_elijah -- unfourtunatley, she was using PSP 7 or...some edition, and I'm in PS CS. I was attempting to achieve the burnt paper look, thus, needing to be able to make the corner transparent. I tried deleting the parts of the layers, so, I just saw that checkered background...but, then when I loaded it into Photobucket it recieved this stupid blue area: - how do you achieve transparency in PS CS?

Thank you so much for your help in advance - you guys are graphic geniuses! <3

Hurray! I saved it as a GIF - a big thank you to those of you who helped me out!
