For wrinkles, you probably want the Photoshop Burn and Dodge tools. Here's some links I put together:

Here's Robin's wonderful Quicktime video on using alpha channels in PS:

Eboni Khan's tutorial:

I have put together a simple notecard with my personal method of creating wrinkles and shading - which does include the basics of the wrinkles via burn-and-dodge method. :) The tutorial was created using PSCS 2, but, should be workable for other versions of PS, as it only makes use of dodge, burn, and blur tools.

If anyone is interested (and I did drop it on Aces) I am more than happy to share.

Please be aware that it's only ONE method of going about things, and there are MANY. What works great for me may not work perfectly in all situations or for all people. But, the basic tools and methods are still there.
