Will someone please explain to me how to create the shadow/reflection effect under the coin? I don't know the proper terminology, but I'm sure someone knows what I'm talking about
You probably want help with reflection since a shadow with black background won't be visible unless you go with a non-traditional shadow color.
Well Brian, here's how I do it in Photoscape...... I've circled (in green ) 'filter'. Hit that button. Up pops a whole bunch of options, but the one you want is 'reflection'....... You're half way there dear fellow.......
