Hi there I love the way this site has its graphics with the two rounded corners at the top of images and what looks like a type of indent on the image.

How do I do this.
Do I use photoshop?
Fireworks?
I have both packages.
Thanks for your help

Try photoshop --
For rouded corners:
------------------
- make your selection
- Select/modify/smooth
- Set to 10px or what ever you prefer
- hit ok
- select the rectangle marquee tool
- hold shift (adds to selection) and reselect the bottom rounded corners
- right click on the image or layer and select layer via copy
For indent
----------
- right click on the layer
- select blending options
- select drop shadow
- change to desired color
- blend mode=normal
- opacity=100
- angle=140
- distance=1
- spread=2
- size=2
- select inner shadow
- change to desired color
- blend mode=normal
- opacity=100
- angle=140
- distance=2
- spread=0
- size=0
You'll have to play around with the settings if you want it exactly as they have it... but this should work for you.
