We need more information to help you. What version of Photoshop are you using? What is your operating system? What method are you using to create a new layer? Sharing a screen capture of what you see might help.

Make sure your image isn't in index color mode, bitmap, or some other mode that doesn't allow layers. Use RGB or CMYK.

I'm sure Chuck would agree that you should be using the RGB color mode (not CMYK).

That would depend on the final output. Which they didn't mention. But in general yeah, RGB. but some printing services may request it.

You always work in RGB and make a copy from it  in the unlikely event you need to supply an image in CMYK. That way you keep your flexibilty for various outputs such as using it for the web or for printing to a desktop color printer which may be CMYK + and whose software will do the conversion itself and get a wider gamut than CMYK.

Oh, Yes, RGB. Just mentioned CMYK as some other color mode that allows layers.

Did you get this resolved, Linda? If not, please post a screen shot of your entire Photoshop Window with the Layers panel open.
