Hi
I' m new to this group, and first of all I woul greet all of you.

Question: is it possible to zoom a layer?
When I use the zoom tool, the whole drawing zooms, including the
background and all layers above it.
For example I have a picture of the sky (background), and I draw an
airplane on it (layer1), than I want to zoom the airplane, but I don't
know how to do it.
I run Photoshop v. 4 :)

Use the transform tool. This allows you to scale the contents of one layer.
In your case, type ctrl-A followed by ctrl-T to scale an object located on
an otherwise transparent layer.
