Step Seven:
This brings up the Drop Shadow options in the Layer Style dialog. Use the Opacity slider to choose how dark your shadow will appear (I don’t choose
100% because then it’s solid, and without it being at least a little transparent, it looks unrealistic). You can also change the angle and distance of the
shadow, but here’s a killer little tip: move your cursor outside that dialog, right onto your image, and just click-and-drag the shadow right where you want
it—much easier than messing with the Angle and Distance controls. The Size slider determines how soft the shadow will be—drag it to the left for a very
hard, defined shadow or to the right for a very soft shadow, like you see here. Don’t click OK yet, because while we’re here, let’s add a stroke around our
small image to help it stand out from the background image. Under Styles, on the left, click on Stroke. Choose 3 px for your Size, click on the Color swatch
and choose white, and set the Position to Inside, so the stroke appears inside the edges of the image. Now click OK to apply the shadow and stroke.
