How to add a shadow to a cutout

To add a shadow to a cutout, open a transparent PNG or an ordinary image, let the subject be isolated, then choose a drop or soft shadow and adjust the offset, blur, and opacity until it looks grounded. Export the result as a PNG, which downloads to your device.

A small shadow makes a cutout look anchored on the final surface instead of flat or detached. Drop shadows suit product shots and stickers, while softer, lower-opacity shadows look natural behind portraits and avatars.

  • Open a transparent PNG cutout or a normal image
  • Pick drop or soft shadow mode
  • Tune offset, blur, and opacity, then export the PNG

What it is good for

Once a background is removed, the subject often looks visually detached on white cards, product sheets, or thumbnails. Adding a controlled shadow is a fast finishing step that grounds the subject without a full design pass.

Because every step happens locally in your browser, this is a private way to polish product assets, stickers, and avatars. The image is never sent to a server, so it is safe for unreleased product photos.

  • Drop shadows for product and sticker assets
  • Soft shadows for portraits and avatars
  • Quick PNG polish for thumbnails and white-card layouts
FAQ

Common questions

Short answers for the questions people usually have before trying a utility like this.

Is the shadow tool free?

Yes. Add Shadow to Cutout is free with no signup or watermark, and it runs in your browser with nothing to install.

Does my image stay on the device?

Yes. Upload, subject isolation, preview, and PNG export all run in your browser, so the image is never uploaded to a server and stays private.

What shadow settings can I control?

You can choose a drop or soft shadow and adjust the offset, blur, and opacity to make the shadow look natural for the subject and the background it will sit on.

Will every image cut out perfectly?

No browser-side cutout is perfect on every source. Clear subjects, simpler backgrounds, and cleaner edges give the strongest result before you add the shadow.

Does it work on mobile?

Yes. The tool runs in any modern mobile or desktop browser, so you can add a shadow to a cutout on a phone or tablet without an app.
