Lea’s Response: @ItsChrisBurton I’ve thought about it, but can’t find a way to do it that has advantages over an image.


@LeaVerou Why I asked is because a forum member on @real_CSS_Tricks is trying to create this effect. http://jsfiddle.net/mightymeta/B2EFG/

Lea’s Response: @ItsChrisBurton That’s exactly the no-go way I had in mind. 42 gradients, 7KB and it’s still not nice. Totally not worth it.

I don’t believe we have to stick to png overlay because there is a way to create this effect using canvas and javascript. @james_brocklehurst, Although Lea might be right, I believe your version would work better applied to the body instead of a div.
