Blend Like a Pro with CSS Blend Mode Generator
The **CSS Blend Mode Generator** brings Photoshop-style layer blending to the web. With `mix-blend-mode` and `background-blend-mode`, you can control how an element's colors interact with the content behind it. This opens up a new world of dynamic compositing directly in the browser.
Common Blend Modes Explained
- Multiply: Darkens the image. Useful for overlaying text on white backgrounds or creating shadows.
- Screen: Lightens the image. Great for creating glowing light leaks or holographic effects on dark backgrounds.
- Overlay: Increases contrast by combining Multiply and Screen.
- Difference: Inverts colors based on the background, often used for dynamic text styling over varied images.
Design Application
Use blend modes to create cohesive duotone headers, text that adapts to video backgrounds, or artistic image galleries without needing pre-processed assets. It saves bandwidth by allowing you to use one grayscale image and colorize it with CSS.
How to Use
- Upload a background image (or use a color).
- Add a foreground layer (text or image).
- Cycle through the Blend Modes to see the effect.
- Copy the CSS property.
