In PSP 5,6, or 7 you make a mask from the image from the image itself. You
can then save it to the alpha channel just like a selection. You'll probably
want to delete the mask afterwards, and that's ok because it'll still be in
the alpha channel. While it is still a mask though, you can choose to edit
the mask as a separate bitmap. This will let you use the various
photo-retouch tools ( i.e. smudge, darken, lighten, etc.) to gain more
control over the transparency. When you save the image, any file format
supporting alpha channel will have it. Hope that helps.
