    Is this an error post I dont see any coding just the end of a web address.
    Or are you referring to the gradient dark to light then just select the gradient tool in any editing software and choose the colours it will fade from 1 to the other.

    Ok is there an easy way to that image ? I dont know if I was to create that then I would have my background layer create a new layer use the square marquee tool draw out the shape of the gradient select the radial gradient tool and the colours you want it to be in this case a slight dark grey and a lighter grey starting with your cursor at the top line of the marquee selection and about a 3rd in just do a smal gradient to the left. ANd the repeat 1 to the right 2/3rds in. Then select rounded rectangle custom shape and draw it to size on top with right colour selected.

    I have varied the colours so you may see it better.

    msignore, your image is just the end of something, I see no box just an edge ! You can also always use the blending option with drop shadows no? (looks like as easy for me but maybe it is not the right image !). Now if not, you can always take a soft black brush and draw a middle size brush under your box where you want that shadows then blur it gaussian and play with opacity and mask if you have too much etc...

    I think the blending option is far easier ! Hope it helps
