Add Drop Shadow to Image

About Add Shadow to Image

A well-rendered drop shadow separates your visual subject from flat presentation slides and web pages, creating natural depth and visual hierarchy.

Modifyle simulates physical light diffusion using Gaussian blur convolution matrices. By combining vertical offset ($Y$-axis elevation) with calibrated opacity decay, your graphics look authentically elevated rather than artificially stamped.

You can pair shadows with corner radius rounding and background gradients for a complete studio presentation look.

Runs entirely in your web browser with zero server latency.
