Opacity for an image layer is the same place as for all layers. Double click the layer and set the opacity.

The main confusion is that the opacity of an image layer does not show in preview! You must render to see the opacity.

It took me a while to track that one down at first. ;)

Yeehaa!

I do the same thing.

But I draw a white box on a vector layer OVER the image layer. I then set the opacity of the box layer... works like a charm.

Under view there is also a "Tracing image" function. I don't like it though because I can't move the image or change it's size or opacity.
