Lilo,

How are you trying to do it?
If you only have one layer, the background layer, you need to unlock this layer by renaming it before it will allow transparency.
A quick way is to alt+double click on "background layer" name in the layers palette.
This will rename it to layer 0.
Then it should just be a question of removing the parts you want to remove (you should see the chequer board pattern indicating transparency) and then save as a PNG file.
