I need to figure out how to overlay an image of my logo on top of another repeating image that is being used as a background for the nag bar at the top of my site.
The CSS for the nag bar image looks like this:
.header {
background:url(../images/bg-header.jpg) repeat-x;
height:125px;
is there a way to add another image on top of this and have it aligned to the left side of the underlying image?
Something like this?
http://jsfiddle.net/aJEwZ/
<style>
.nav {
background: url(http://www.psdgraphics.com/file/light-wooden-background.jpg) repeat-x;
height: 250px;
width: 500px;
border:1px solid black;
}
img {
padding:20px;
}
</style>
<div class='nav'>
<img src="http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/h/a/haz-elf.jpg?1" />
hello</div>
Here you go.
here's a DEMO
and here's the CODE
Here's the css
.header {
background: url("http://fc04.deviantart.net/fs70/i/2013/266/7/3/sydneigh_logo_by_robberbutton-d6nmaox.png") top left no-repeat ,url("http://subtlepatterns.com/patterns/sandpaper.png") repeat-x;
background-size: 571px 125px, auto;
height:125px;
width: 100%;
}
notice how the background attribute has two shorthand backgrounds with images written out seperated by a comma. The first image is on top of the second image and so on.
The first property of attribute background-size only applies to the first property in the background attribute (the first image in the declared background attribute.) The second applies to the second image in the background attribute.
This works the same way with other background-properties such as background-repeat, and background-image.
Here's an article on having multiple background images:

The white part is a container div centered horizontally on the website. The stripes are the background image of the body element. I have the rest of the dumbbell as a picture and I want to place it outside of the container so that there's a complete picture.
Usually it would be positioning the image absolutely in the container div and moving it a bit to the right.
But my problem is that the background of the whole image is white. So the result is:
Is there a way to solve this?
<body>
<div id="container">
<div id="pimg"><img src="../images/image_part.png"></div>
</div>
</body>
html {
background-image: url('../images/stripes.png');
}
#container {
position: relative;
background-color: white;
background-image: url('../images/image.png'); // first picture
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: top right;
width: 800px;
height: 90%;
margin: 0 auto;
}
#pimg {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
right: -100px; // second image
}
You can set the following css to hide the part of the image that goes outsite the div#container
#container
{
overflow:hidden;
}
The above approach will crop the image, and if you don't want to do that you could set this so that the image has maximum width the one of it's container
#pimg
{ width:800px; }
#pimg img
{ max-width:100%; }
The main problem is that your PNG has a white background instead a transparent background like you want so:
Edit "image.png" in an image editor software like Adobe Photoshop or GIMP
Open it in the image editor
Erease the background (because you have a PNG, yes, but it has a white background)
Save the image in PNG or GIF format, because JPEG doesn't support transparent backgrounds
Tip: Photoshop have an option to save a picture for the web, Control(Command in Mac) + Shift + alt + S, this option can help you to optimize the image adjusting its params
Here's a Photoshop tutorial: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PLA2FaOXkkg
here is my css by which i position one image on at center.
.BusyStyles
{
background-image: url('../images/busy.gif');
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: center center;
height: 350px;
width: 300px;
}
can i enhance the above css as a result i can place another image at center on the div just below the busy.gif......is it possible? if yes then please give me the css by which i can position two image as background for div at center one after one. thanks
Check sample for two background image in a single div tag.
CSS:
.container{
width:300px;
height:150px;
background:url(http://img.b8cdn.com/images/icons/loading_large_icon.gif) no-repeat 50% 28%, url(http://twitter-badges.s3.amazonaws.com/t_logo-a.png) no-repeat 50% 60%;
border:1px solid #CCCCCC;
}
You can only do this in CSS 3 (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/423172/can-i-have-multiple-background-images-using-css)
body {
background-image: url(images/bgtop.png), url(images/bg.png);
background-repeat: repeat-x, repeat;
}
I agree with LiamB's solution to this if you have the ability to only support browsers that are compatible with CSS 3.
However, if you need to support more browsers than that I recommend you solve this problem by having 2 divs. Both divs will be positioned on top of each other. The div positioned below contains only a background image. The div positioned on top contains another background image (positioned to look as if it is below the background image from the other div) and any content you want to have.
I have a problem with setting a background image over my background color: Here is my example so that you can see what I mean: JSFiddle
Now here is the functional CSS part:
#tancan{
background-color: #ebebeb;
background-image: url('http://lamininbeauty.co.za/images/products/tancan2.jpg');
}
As you can see in the JSFiddle, the background image repeats. If I use no-repeat as a property, the image disappears.
Also, I want the background image to float to the right, and should the image be bigger than the containing div, how to I make it fit proportionally? - Like you would make an image tag <img/> fit by using width: 100% and height: 100%?
I don't want to use an HTML image tag, it would be much easier but there are several reasons I do not want to use it.
Try this - http://jsfiddle.net/vmvXA/17/
#tancan {
background: #ebebeb url('http://lamininbeauty.co.za/images/products/tancan2.jpg') no-repeat top right;
}
and to make the background image not exceed its parent container you can use background-size: contain - http://jsfiddle.net/vmvXA/22/
Here's the fiddle.
background:#ebebeb url('http://lamininbeauty.co.za/images/products/tancan2.jpg') no-repeat right top;
To make the code shorter, it is possible to specify all the settings in one single property. This is called a 'shorthand property'.
To make all pictures fit inside it's parent add the style property background-size:contain;.
Updated the fiddle.
You can't just add no-repeat to background-image, because background-image is a specific property that only refers to the image itself. If you want to add it all in one declaration, then set background:
background: url('http://lamininbeauty.co.za/images/products/tancan2.jpg') #ebebeb no-repeat top right;
or keep it all separate, up to you:
background-color: #ebebeb;
background-image: url('http://lamininbeauty.co.za/images/products/tancan2.jpg');
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position:top right;
background-size: contain;
I have an image that looks like this:
Is it possible to extend this image (perhaps inside a div) so that it would look something like this:
Thanks!
You can create a div of the same color using the CSS background-color property (I believe the hex should be ~#999). Then, position the image as a background-image within the div using the background-position: right property.
HTML
<div class="arrow">Home</div>
CSS
#arrow {
background-color: #999;
background-image: url('http://i.stack.imgur.com/QDCz4.png');
background-position: right;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
/* sets div dimensions/text styles */
height: 24px;
color: white;
text-align: center;
line-height: 24px;
float: left;
padding-left: 20px;
padding-right: 30px; /* slightly longer to account for background image /*
}
JS Fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/fbBsz/14/
Get a vertical slice of the gray part of very top left of the arrow with having width:1px. Take that one px slice image and repeat it on -x.
Here is something you can practice with
Since your image does not have a gradient, you have a better chance of matching the color(s) you want with just using background color.
you can set it as a background to a div
#elem {
display:block;
width:200px;
height:20x;
background: url(/filepath/to/image.gif) right top no-repeat #ccc;
}
Just make sure the background color is the same as the dark grey on the gif
No, this is not possible in CSS. You must set the width of the containing element, set the background image's url and set the x-position to right and set the repeat to no-repeat. Then set the background color to the same as the button's foreground color. If the button foreground is a pattern, you will have to use another image as the background.
No, not with that image at least :-)
Looks like you could make use the "sliding doors" technique – see http://www.alistapart.com/articles/slidingdoors/ for a good article about it
I have a site design that uses background images and textures as a feature of the site.
See background design concept here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/54233587#N03/6145240784/in/photostream
The background is intended to work like this:
The page background has a tiled pattern (or on some pages there will be solid background colour).
The top part of the background is overlayed with a background image. The background image is a large image (2000px wide) and needs to be centred in the window. Depending on the page, the height of the image will crop from the bottom (that is, on one page the image may need to be 400px, while on others it may be 450px). This background image also has a CSS3 box-shadow applied so there is a slight shadow at the bottom of the image. This background image cannot use a fixed position - that is, it should move with the page if it is scrolled.
All other page content sits on top of the background in a centered div, indicated by the black box in the screenshot.
I have tried to achieve this by targeting the HTML5 html node for the tiled background.
html {
background: url(../img/pegboard.jpg) repeat center;
}
Then, for the overlaying background image I've been using a div element to insert an image.
<div id="bgimage"><img src="mybgimage.jpb"></div>
Then styling the img to try and center, not be fixed when scrolling, and resize the div to crop image from bottom. All without much success.
Thanks.
I would do something like this.
HTML:
<div id="bgimage"></div>
<div id="content">
Actual content goes here.
</div>
CSS:
body {
background: url(../img/pegboard.jpg) repeat center;
}
#bgimage {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
right: 0;
background: url(../img/mybgimage.jpg) no-repeat center;
height: 400px;
box-shadow: 0 5px 5px -5px #000;
}
#content{
margin: 0 auto;
width: 960px;
height: 1000px;
background: #000;
filter: alpha(opacity=50);
opacity: 0.5;
}
