Enter quick mask mode, use gradient tool, exit quick mask mode, delete?

When you say 'image' you mean ..er.. 'an image'?
If so - set a layer mask on the layer you want your transparency, select the mask (by clicking on right side of layer in pallette), then select your normal black to white gradient and apply it as you wish on the mask layer.

ALPHA MASKS! NEVER DELETE PIXELS!!!
my all caps screaming is done for the day. seriously though try to work non destructively.
duplicate your layer turn off your background layer apply an alpha mask toyour duplicated layer and whatever you paint 100%black on the alpha mask will disappear...
black=conceals
white =reveals
