BlueEdge Layer Style

boxThis is a great layer style to make content boxes for websites, and it is a nice style to apply to custom shapes in Photoshop. Play around with it, it is very easy to customize the colors and have a bigger blue edge. I am working on making a tutorial of how to make a web layout using this layer style. I also used a similar layer style for my new online portfolio, it is still in development but you can check it out here.
