In CSS3 you can use drop shadow around divs or tables (if you still use tables). You can use these drop shadows to add a nice aesthetic look around blocks in your web interface. Check out the article on CSS 3 Drop Shadow Here. A very cool thing about CSS3 is that you can also add drop shadow effects to your text. To add a drop shadow effect to your text add the following code to your stylesheet:

.dropshadow_text
{

     text-shadow: rgba(0,0,0,.8) 0 2px 0;
     font-size:28px;
     color:#cccccc;

}

And add the following to your HTML file

<p class='dropshadow_text'>This text has a drop shadow effect!</p>

And that's it :)
