dulplicate layer
then delete the background layer or just hide it
keeping the new one on top
select the backround color or area
edit>clear

leaves you a nice for ground with a transparent background

this is my technique as well. use either the wand or the lasso (for a more specific selection). but isn't there a way to do transpariencies using alpha channels as well?
