thanks for the replies, I think some of my issues was trying to work with an element while not having its layer selected, I just didn't notice where I was, duh.. now that I'm more comfortable with lots of layers and manipulating them as individual enties within the whole composition, everything gets easier.
my current understanding of alpha channel is that you have to turn it on if wanting to make background transparent, which seems to be way to go when having various elements on a layer. not sure why its important to lock it on the layers tab, unless it tends to flip to being off due to some other manipulation. now on to paths to curve text
