My drop shadow settings are 0, 5, 0, 4, 200 (black - 0,0,0). This is for paint.net.

I played around with it until I found something I was happy with. I didn't want to over do it. And it took me a while to figure how to get the shadow to work the way I wanted it to.

What I don't like in drop shadow is if you can see the shadow in a dark background, but not as a shadow. It just doesn't look good. It will look totally good with a light color, but against a dark color it should disappear.
