Well.. to begin.. here is a tutorial.. Mind.. they are trying to sell their software, so they mention it a lot.. but it DOES walk you thru.

Here's one that covers PS7.. a little out of date, but still useful.

Finally, here is a really good Youtube in it.

These should help you understand Alpha channel and some of it's uses.. Hope this helps. Lou.
