Default PhotoShop Question

For some odd reason, when I create a new layer, add a render, add a stcok, add anything it does not show up. I always have it default to start out of with four layers: Brush, Background, Stock, Effects. If I have a 380x120px layer for a signature, I cannot add anything. The little eye is there, and it is not locked.....

Please do not direct me to a tut, I read them. The pic just simply does not show.

Umm... ok, only thing I can think of that you haven't mentioned...

If the layer your working on is under another layer, then the top layer will... be on top. And if the top layer is a full-screen picture, then the bottom doesn't show (duh).

I dunno tho, I've never heard of this before XD

Are you new to Photoshop?

Ctrl-T
Or Edit-Transform-Free Transform
Make sure the picture is selected with the Box or Lasso tool first

Lol XD, its much harder than it seems... your current one is pretty decent for a new user... Personally, I like messing around with the Filter option.
Just explore! It's better than any tutorial, mostly cuz you actually learn, rather than just follow instructions
