Are you drawing this line on its own layer on a transparent background? Yes, do post screenshots.

i posted big screenshots but these are small res.

You have a black stroke on your line that is 200px that is wiping out the white fill that you have, so when you view you black line on the black background, all you see is black. Change the bg color or reduce the stroke size, or change it to another color.

Haha! No need to be embarrassed. I could tell you some REALLY embarrassing things I've done at the beginning. (But I won't haha)

We've all done things like that.
