Tony,
If you want to take out the shadow from the home page widgets and the drop down, here’s how:
1) Go to the appearance section and select edit to open up the theme editor.
2) From the list of files on your right, choose style.css
3) Look for this spot:
.shadow,
ul.sub-menu {
-moz-box-shadow: 0 1px 5px #000000;
-webkit-box-shadow: 0 1px 5px #000000;
box-shadow: 0 1px 5px #000000;
}
and delete it.
4) Save your changes.
That should take out the shadow from the home page widgets as well as the drop-down menu.
If you just want to remove the drop-down shadow, you could delete the “,” after .shadow and the ul.sub-menu. That will leave a shadow on the widgets, but remove it from the drop downs.
Enjoy your weekend
