First of all, you need a program that can save a png file, like Paint.NET. You need to change the opacity of the layer you want transparent from 0-255. 255 is a completely opaque layer, 0 is completely invisible.

When you want to save your image, make sure to save it as a PNG file. JPEG does not show transparency, it appears opaque in the final image.
