For some reason when I open some files I can create new layers, but when I open other files the menus are grayed out and the cursor becomes a circle with a line through it when i pass over the icons. Why is this, and how can I create layers on those images that seem to be layer-unfriendly?

Thanks.

I think you will find that elements only makes layers available to you if you are working in Grayscale or RGB colour. Change to either of these two modes by going to the menu Images >Mode and then selecting the one you want to work with.
