Re: [css-d] limitations to sprites?

As for the size, bear in mind the above about browser memory usage, and then your ability to keep track of them. All depends on your target audience, targeted devices, etc. Thank you, Philippe… am I correct that any app that can show a given icon's x-y coordinates in pixels is suitable for creating/exporting the final sprites sheet? All one must do is jot down the coordinates for the given sprite and have them handy when writing the css? I find myself using an OS X draw app called Sketch more and more these days..it seems nicely focused toward web graphics workflow, but so far, I don't notice that it exports a sheet of coordinates; just the graphic. Guess I'll have to do the coordinates old-school..

Re: [css-d] linear-gradient
This is one of those cases where the syntax is so convoluted and forked I can never remember it myself — but when I don't have SASS at my disposal I always go to this tool: www.colorzilla.com/gradient-editor/ It even throws in IE filter and svg data-uri polyfills!

My code is as follows: background-image: linear-gradient(to bottom, red, yellow); I thought the to as the first parameter must have been a typo and that it should be top as in top to bottom on the gradient. But if I change the syntax to top the gradient doesn't work. Can anyone explain please?

...What Barney C. said. But if you're a glutton for punishment, the
value syntax is as follows:
linear-gradient(angle|keyword, color1 stop1, color2 stop2, ...);
Angles are provided in the form {int}deg and 0deg = 12 o'clock (top to
bottom) unless it's part of -webkit-linear-gradient, in which case 0deg
= 3 o'clock.
Only one keyword is needed; the gradient will travel across the affected
element from there. If two (space-separated) keywords are provided,
they should be on different axes by way of indicating a corner.
Any valid color value will do, as will any valid length value for the
locations of the stops. If stop lengths are omitted, the first color
will be on the left edge, the last on the right, and the other colors
will be evenly spaced along the gradient.
If a CSS property with more verbose values (that aren't data URIs)
exists, I haven't found it yet.
