Getting a shadow on all 4 sides of a square in photoshop

Posted 19 October 2009 - 12:51 AM

Hi there this seems like a fairly basic question but I tried duplicating a layer and changing the drop shadow angle and that doesn't work. Does any1 know how to get a drop shadow on all 4 sides of a square.


Thanks

I would probably use the outer glow change it to a black and just mess around with the settings until you get your desired result.

Hope that helps :)

Use the shadow. Set the distance to 0 and mess around with the spread, size and Opacity. Angle is not important
