Default Questions regarding heat press from a new guy.

I am new to the T-Shirt world (I am still in the process of learning the technology involved), and I have a question regarding the heat press process. Basically, how does it work? I understand that in silk screening you create and image and pass the ink through a screen to apply it to a shirt, but with a heat press how does this process work? What type of template am i using for the designs?
