White to black, because people say that white and black aren’t colours.

But I just say “FFFFFFuck y000000u!”

[-] JackGreenEarth@lemm.ee 5 points 1 month ago

They're not hues, but they are colors, which is a combination of hue, saturation, and brightness.

my fav color is clear, so my fav gradient would be opacity

[-] friend_of_satan@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

I was going for something similar with 75% opaque at the top and 0% opaque at the bottom, known as a neutral density gradient in photography, often used in landscape photographs to balance the bright sky against the less bright ground or water. This is a great one for me since I'm color blind.

This is actually my diagonal monitor background

[-] bitfucker@programming.dev 6 points 1 month ago

...can you post your monitor setup?

[-] NorthWestWind@lemmy.world 14 points 1 month ago
[-] rtxn@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago

That's not the kind of diagonal I expected. I thought it would be something like this:

Let me guess -- Java developer?

[-] NeatNit@discuss.tchncs.de 6 points 1 month ago

These look like Splatoon characters

[-] lvxferre@mander.xyz 16 points 1 month ago

Dunno if it counts as one or three gradients, but I really like this green/brown/gold gradations.

[-] Knuk@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

That reminds me of swimming in rivers in the forest, the sand looks golden like that through the water

[-] lvxferre@mander.xyz 1 points 1 month ago

Yeah, it's mostly a "nature" gradient. Besides the sand the golden part also gets close to fallen leaves.

I used this gradient a lot of times when making websites in the past (before CSS was a thing, to give you an idea on how long it was), as it's colourful without being flashy.

[-] Evkob@lemmy.ca 10 points 1 month ago

The background of all my devices is a gradient version of the bisexual flag, so I guess that'd be my fav gradient!

[-] Corno@lemm.ee 10 points 1 month ago

Teal to orange

[-] tetrachromacy@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago

The colors that appear in the sky during a sunset. Beautiful blues, purples and oranges, slowly dimming until it disappears over the horizon.

[-] myusernameis@lemmy.ca 8 points 1 month ago

Trans Pride Flag as a Gradient

I mean yes, because that, but also it's just pretty.

'videogame ice effect'

I seriously love the over-the-top ice shaders used in all those early 2000s games. Ice always looked amazing, just this super bright white with pearlescent whitish-blue highlights that shimmered at odd angles and stuff. It's so cool.

Like the bridge tunnel in IceFields from HaloPC in 2003.

Or the almost-fully-transparent ice tunnel in Crysis Warhead (and firefall. Firefall had AMAZING ice shaders, it had some direction-based visual stuff going on where it had volumetric speckles all throuought the foot-thick ice).

Honestly: ice-themed anything looks cool to me, color-wise

[-] grrgyle@slrpnk.net 1 points 1 month ago

Damn. Good answer

[-] Sequentialsilence@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

Greyscale.

I’m colorblind.

[-] Peppycito@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 month ago

Tint, tone and shade FTW

[-] ThePowerOfGeek@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

Ultraviolet to gamma-ray gradient, with a polkadot pattern overlay.

[-] pennomi@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

Heck, I’m just a fan of the electromagnetic spectrum in general!

[-] drail@fedia.io 5 points 1 month ago

Cividis. Perceptually uniform gradient colormaps are fun for the whole family

[-] Sanctus@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

Purple-Cyan, or maybe Yellow-Cyan.

[-] dandelion@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 1 month ago

Something like this Firefox theme, but with some violet mixed in.

[-] leaky_shower_thought@feddit.nl 2 points 1 month ago

it may not sound like colors at all, but it is peach-salmon.

[-] BlackPenguins@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

I guess what I would consider "electric blue": sky blue paired with a lighter navy blue.

[-] HurlingDurling@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)
