Select the entire shadow layer by first clicking on it in the Layers Window and then pressing Ctrl + A (Select All).

Activate the Move tool :MoveTool:

Grab the top centre control nub and drag it down to squash the shadow layer. When you're satisfied, release the control nub.

You might also get some nice effects by using Rotate/zoom (Ctrl + Shift + Z).

Hi there. This tool is very slow in rendering for me. I have dual-core 2.6MHz Intel CPU with 8GB of RAM FYI

 

What are system requirements for this plugin?

I seem to recall that it does take a little time to render. Patience ? :D

Absolute awesome, except for one thing...the light source is always from the front.

 

Mirroring and moving the shadow after it has been created can make it look OK, but it's not like the current exact render.  An addition of a control for the "ground" level (in pixels/percent from the bottom, with the default at zero, like now), and extending the angles to allow lighting from the back would be great.
