For those of you who have downloaded the latest Kirsten or Cool viewer and have the graphics that can achieve them, you can now get Shadows in Second Life! lucky you.
My graphics however, are utter shite and I cannot :( So I just make my own using photoshop.
There are two methods that I use to add shadows to Second Life Pictures, by creating an overlay layer and painting using a fat soft brush a vague outline to where a shadow should be, using blur tools and reducing the opacity to suit. The other method is taking a duplicate layer, cutting out your object and making it black using some blur then laying it on your photo as a shadow, and reducing the opacity again. The two photos added show the methods I have used.
