Need help with drop shadows

I'm working on an alphabet album and on most of the frames I've made the drop shadows are in the correct place--on the bottom and to the right of the image. On some of them though, the shadow gets cast to the left. I've tried redoing them and I don't think I'm doing anything differently, but I can't figure out how to correct it.

Anyone have any advice for me?

Thanks!!

Well.. are you sure the clock icon has the shadow pointed in the right direction? That's the only thing I can think of.. be sure the offset number is not a negative number.. this ususually means it is to be moved to the left instead of right..

Can you post a screenshot of the drop shadow screen adn the result? Would help greatly... Good lUCK!

When you add a drop shadow an little icon should appear in that layer indicating that a layer style has been added. Double click on this icon and it should open a dialog box with the clock then you can change where the direction the light is coming from with the clock. You can also change how much of a shadow you actually want. Good luck.
