Sorry, you've lost me here. Is this colloquial English? I don't know what it 
means.

You've lost me here again. What would actually be the precise difference 
when adding a blurred shadow to vector/raster images?

When you add shadows to images, you just redraw the image in the desired 
shadow color, apply the desired blurring, then composite it in the right 
place in the visual ordering.

What else would you possibly apply to images?

Regards,
Axel
