There are fabulous tutorials and helpful posts about this very subject in the texturing tips forum. It always helps to have a good, solid look around the forums before posting.

What you are looking for is called an "alpha channel".... that is the clearing part.

You might want to peruse the "textures" forum threads. There are quite a few that discuss how to use alpha channels. I also recommend that you do a search in world for Robin Sojourner and look at her picks. Tp over to her shop. Next to it she set up a gazeebo with quite a few tutorials about alpha channels.
