I'm finally happy with my radial-gradient() syntax. You can view it at http://www.xanthir.com/:4bhipd (scroll down past the linear-gradient() examples). Highlights are reusing *all* of the infrastructure from linear-gradient (changing only the default values for <bg-position> and <angle>), and then adding a second argument which takes two keywords defining the shape and size of the gradient. I think this syntax will cover a large majority of radial gradient uses on the web (unfortunately, radial gradients are much less common due to them requiring much larger files), while being simple and easy to understand and write. Much thanks to David Perrell for giving me the arguments that inspired this syntax. Making examples for radial gradients is substantially more difficult in GIMP than for linear gradients, so instead I'll be putting together a generator for them this weekend, and will have examples live-generated from the syntax afterwards. ~TJ
