How do I create an effect like this in Photoshop CS5? (see image)

[skiier]

The gray box has a solid gray color on the edges but white towards the center. How do I make this effect?

Thanks.

having a white-blue-gray shape like that and double click on layer, select inner shadow and play with value's, maybe that'll do the trick?
also a little bevel and emboss to have the shape come out?

Ah perfect. Applying an inner shadow and playing with the opacity and choke as well as shadow color did the trick. Thanks.

by the way you were almost right lol i would like you to get that image with an even shadow all the way round go

 

[Burned Ice]

can't you adjust that with blending options?

 

[Hoogle]

you can just would be a lot easier to use custom shape tool with rounded rectangle draw a box grey then drew 1 white and then maybe use some shadow emboss etc for a more sharper finish

 

[Hoogle]

but your way would work for smaller pictures

blending options is still the way to go, just use inner glow instead of inner shadow. change the gradient to a black to white and blending mode to multiply to get an even gradient all the way around.
