Kristian,
For the colour shadow effect (assuming you're running 16-bit colour) you could get the data from the screen where the shadow is to be applied, then lower each RGB value a littel it and copy it back to the screen.
You could also look at the copy options, on WinPaintBitmap or similar which might be able to and/or/nand things together.

A couple of questions to the forum:
1) I'm using Stefan Stolz excellent pnojpeglibrary to display some images in my app. I thought it would be really cool to manually add a shadow-effect to the right and bottom of the images, so that the underlying text gets overshaded, much like a darken layer. I'm doing it now with a black rectangle, but it would look much better if the rectangle was shaded. Does anyone know of a trick to accomplish this? Would it be an insane amount of work, would I better forget about it?
2) Does anyone know how to remove the border around a custom graphical pushbutton? PilRCs PUSHBUTTON does not have the NOFRAME parameter (at least not my working version, think it's 3.1).
Thanks, anyone!
