That's a tough one. The PNG Utilities plugin by Frank Condello (IIRC) will do this for PNG. I don't know of one that will do it for PICT (PICT doesn't really have official support for an alpha channel, but there's a de facto convention for it that many paint programs support.) I wouldn't say that PSD or TGA are major formats, but they are simple, so if you want to support them you can probably just write RB code to do it. Declares to QuickTime could probably do it as well, but it wouldn't be easy.
