By taking David L. suggestion:

About the CSS3 options, if you need to play on the background with both, image 
and gradient, this may work:

I.e - an image on our background, on the bottom left of a given container, and 
a gradient from right to left.

   background-color: #f6f6f6;
    background-position: bottom left;
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    background-image: url(image_url), -webkit-gradient(linear, right, left, 
from(#f6f6f6), to(#fff)); /* Saf4+, Chrome */
    background-image: url(image_url), -webkit-linear-gradient(right, #f6f6f6, 
#fff); /* Chrome 10+, Saf5.1+ */
    background-image: url(image_url), -moz-linear-gradient(right, #f6f6f6, 
#fff); /* FF3.6+ */
    background-image: url(image_url), -ms-linear-gradient(right, #f6f6f6, 
#fff); /* IE10 */
    background-image: url(image_url), -o-linear-gradient(right, #f6f6f6, #fff); 
/* Opera 11.10+ */
    background-image: url(image_url), linear-gradient(right, #f6f6f6, #fff);

Cheers,
