I never used it myself (but I'm using LaTeX frequently), but there is a
LaTeX package called texshade which can do stuff like that, see
http://homepages.uni-tuebingen.de/beitz/tse.html
There is also an on-line implementation, but I fear to get everything
out ouf it (e.g. arbitrary text and arrows at arbitrary places) you
would have to use it locally and add some pstricks/pdftricks stuff.
