Bonjour Fons, il fait frois en Belgique maintenant, n’est ce pas?

Select the Move tool, press the shift key, and drag one image on top of another to add it as a new layer.

You can also drag the image from the layer palette onto of another image. Press the shift key to center the new image on the old one. —

And, if one is doing something like Copy/Paste, upon the Paste action [note lower-case "a," so as to NOT confuse with PS Actions], PS will create a new Layer for you.

IMHO, you are embarking on one of the strongest features of PS, Layers. Make sure that, when you are comfortable, you explore the next "biggie," Layer Masks.
