If so, you can try following this on box-shadow:

I'm not too positive on what your trying to accomplish though - and that won't work in some browsers.

I think the background for that template is a fixed image, so is there a simple way to get a drop-shadow effect in any color?

Actually, I also thought that div's were stripped (or converted to p's) but I did know that inline styles worked - for some things. I tried, and it worked.

To make the post in question, I started off by using a floated img with negative left and bottom margins and no border. (The k2-lite theme defines a border by default.) This worked in Firefox but the floating img was displayed above the text in I.E. 6, even though the img tag appeared before the text in the markup. To fix this, I had to use a good ol' div-with-background-and-placeholder trick. I was annoyed about this because it meant that I had to wrap the whole post in a div, instead of simply putting a nice, cohesive img tag above it.

Just in case you're interested, the image came from a Dreamfall desktop background, which I photoshoped a bit to make it suitable.

Have fun!

I now understand how to do it.
Sorry for getting things wrong.

@atthe404 - I see it - and it's huge. But apparently the trick has been there for a long time....

Unless you're referring to some different posts, the source code clearly shows this:

<div style="background:url('http://prismatic.files.wordpress.com/2007/08/dreamfall.png') no-repeat top right;">
<div style="width:115px;height:350px;float:right;"></div>

They're in my sample post and in the original one.

Addendum
I created another test post with some div tags in it

It was also no bug.

Apparently I was doing something wrong... The inline styles don't get stripped. I just replicated that effect.

So, no... the div tags don't get stripped.

I'll be deleting the post soon

Interesting but I thought that <div> tags were stripped by the software here.
Is that no longer the case?

]]> devblog on "How to get this background effect?" http://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/how-to-get-this-background-effect#post-106099 Thu, 16 Aug 2007 15:29:53 +0000 devblog 106099@http://en.forums.wordpress.com/ The author of that blog created a <div> with a background image, then, created another <div> with the dimensions of the woman and made it float to the right.

The code looks something like this:

<div style='background: [properties here]'>
<div style='[values you want to emulate your image so your text will wrap around it'>
</div>
<p>
text text text text
</p>
<p>
ext text text text
</p>
<p>
ext text text text
</p>
</div>

Hope this answers your question.
