Gray Shadow

Gray Shadow is the use of gray-tinted offset shapes to give a pixel or object a faint depth cue against another form in a buddy icon. You can spot it in the samples as separate shadow silhouettes under letters, characters, or symbols, especially on light-on-dark or dark-on-light layouts.
