what i do is draw two ovals (or any shape), the bottom one offset and
black to create a shadow.

in a much more elaborate case i wanted my main shape to be
semi-transparent so the shadow was visible beneath. in this case, i
created two Images, each one drawn with the same shape, but the main one
with alpha set and the second one just black. then i have a figure with
both images. i draw the shadow first with a graphics.drawImage(), then
the main image with graphics.drawImage() offset from the shadow. this
makes a very cool effect where the shadow is slightly visible behind the
top image.
