Guys,

Need a little bit of help here…  
I just cant seem to figure this out… :puzzle:

I gave this picture a dropshadow in photoshop using the blending options.  
Deleted its background. It now has a transparent background.

I have an html page with a tiled pattern background.

How should i export the picture from photoshop so that when i put it in the page using \<IMG SRC=""\>, the dropshadow would cast on the tiled background?

Hope you get my point…  
Thanks in advance

You’d need to use PNGs with support alpha transparence, but browser support is sketchy and can end up making things worse. ☹
