For today’s post, I got inspired by Ahmed El Gabri and his article CSS3 Gradients Coffee cup. I figured if you could make a coffee cup, you could make just about anything with CSS3! For example, today I created a realistic Ipod just with CSS3 and no images at all.
First of all, I recommend to do this with canvas; I just used CSS3 in order to better understand the gradient property in Safari and Chrome (webkit) and have some fun during the process of learning :) .
Second of all, if you are going to check it out and want to get the full effect, I recommend Firefox, Safari or Chrome because they really support the gradients.
Lastly, feel free to read some of my other CSS3 tutorials to get a back ground on how it works!
