If you want to make text better stand out against a background image, there’s a little trick: You can use a CSS linear-gradient overlay with a certain opacity on top of the image to improve color contrast.

How to determine the opacity to use for the overlay? The Optimal Overlay Finder helps you find out. You upload an image, enter your text and choose your overlay and text colors, and the tool shows you a preview of what the overlay looks like when applied to your image, as well as the optimal overlay opacity.

In this tutorial you’ll learn about using gradients on the web. I’ll give you some examples, some exercises (such as how to create gradients for borders), and I’ll also throw in some useful resources which will make creating gradients a lot easier.

Today you’ll learn how to use gradients for a website in Adobe XD through a very useful tutorial.

Always decide on a light source. This will help you decide which are the lighter and darker areas in the gradient.

In my opinion the greatest inspiration for finding great natural gradients is nature. Specifically, the sky. It’s most basic colours are blue and red, but in truth, it’s so much more than just that. Subtle changes in hue emulate waves, the irregular and imperfect clouds simultaneously both ruin and enhance the big picture, and should the sun ever rise or set, the whole thing is thrown into complete disarray, that, while one would think would ruin the experience, everything still sets into a perfect harmony. I have never seen a sky that didn’t somehow inspire me to feel something bigger than all the artists of our civilization have ever managed to create.
