I'm working on a second draft right now, and need to know something. Which of these two images is preferable? http://www.xanthir.com/test-gradient.php?shape=skewellipse&width=200&height=200&start=ffff00&end=0000ff http://www.xanthir.com/test-gradient.php?shape=quarter-circle&width=200&height=200&start=ffff00&end=0000ff The first is a simply skew transformation, identical to what you'd get from -webkit-gradient() if it didn't have a strange bug when the start-circle was outside of the ending-circle. It starts with a 0-radius yellow circle in the top-left, then gradually moves down and right until it becomes a blue circle centered in the middle with diameter equal to half the box diagonal. The second is a quarter-circle centered at the top-left and with radius equal to the box diagonal. I'm trying to decide if being able to specify the starting-position is useful or not. You can play with it to see if it ends up being useful by altering the query params on the following link: http://www.xanthir.com/test-gradient.php?shape=skewellipse&width=300&height=200&start=ffff00&end=0000ff&start_x=50&start_y=50 If not (as I'm suspecting), I'm going to drop the idea in general, and instead allow you to specify a side or corner to do a half-ellipse and quarter-ellipse. ~TJ
