Background image with gradient overlay

For a website I have used a radial gradient as an overlay for a background image.This is the CSS I used.

background: -webkit-radial-gradient(20% 95%, circle farthest-corner, hsl(120,73%,75%), rgba(255,255,255,0) 40%), url(../img/ginkgoklein.png) 95% 10% no-repeat, url(../img/subtle_white_feathers.png) top left repeat @base-color3;

I'm not sure how to write the different webkit versions in this code.Do I have to repeat all of the code above for each webkit like Safari and Android, and also one without the webkit prefix?

Hey Sander,

Personally I would use Compass (a Sass plugin) which would generate the vendor prefixes.

E.g.

-webkit- -moz- -0- -ms-

If you are just typing out the code I would recommend this site colorzilla it has some great visual prompts and generates the code for you.

Hope this helps.

Thanks Neil! I never coded CSS with SASS before, just in Less. But this looks like a cool feature! I will definitely check it out.

if you run a mac, get codekit it complies the SCSS to CSS and has error handling included.

Also [codepen](codepen.io) also has the ability to learn of the fly $ = FREE

The docs for SASS & COMPASS are really great! I think if you check roadmap, there will soon be a SASS basics.
