Best CSS teacher ever!

So many nice tricks in one video. That's what I call adding value! Great job!

I've struggled with background image placement for ages and have faffed around and wasted so much time gettimg them to look right when also trying to be responsive....This short tutorial has helped me no end! Thanks Kevin!!!

Oh crap. I spent a night wondering why the image wouldn't display in the bg... It was an empty div. Thanks Kev. I love your stuff!!!

The king of css dropped another masterpiece, thank you so much ❤

I was looking for this. Very helpful to me. Love your explaining.

I started watching you 5-6 weeks ago because you had a great video about a thing i needed to know then. Now i just watch because its fun and interesting. Nice vid Kevin. :D

Thank you so much for this tutorial, i was needing precise background image positioning. Always something to learn from you. The best CSS teacher indeed!

This just help in a project for an interview, thank you

I appreciate this briefest of overviews! Thank you! I'm a streamer who knows NOTHING about programming! Lol! Also! I love your outro so much that I've subscribed to your channel "Don't forget to make your corner of the internet just a little more awesome!" LOVE IT!!! SUBSCRIBED!

My Request: Custom Fonts Where to get fonts. Storing them on the website’s own server (for fastest and most reliable loading) and which font files types should be used for full browser support. Then how to setup with CSS. I can do this, but it would be good see best practice to check if I could do it a better way.

why so much informative videos have so much less views, Sir you're the best teacher

Me : Kevin you dropped something Kevin : what ? Me : A Masterpiece

Best class of the year ✨

I am in my early stages of learning. You definitely were a life saver I stumbled upon, your videos explain the process so clearly! Thank you!

Something cool I did with background images recently uses a bunch of the things you talked about here. I had a design where there were borders on elements that didn't go the entire width of the container. So instead of using pseudo-elements, or border image I used linear-gradient as a background, and used background-size to make it not go the full width of the box. Something like: background-image: linear-gradient(black, black); background-position: bottom left; background-size: 60% 2px; background-repeat: no-repeat; Now no matter how big the box is, it'll have what looks like a border going partway through the element. You can also combine it with multiple background images, so there's one partial border on the left, and one on the bottom.

This is the course I have been looking for from a very long time, love your videos 💛

I am onto an assignment and I found this content very helpfull, very well explained with a clear pronunciation. Thank you Kevin

Excellent content as always, Kevin. Thanks mate!

Thank you so much! The level of frustration I’ve had for weeks was resolved within the first 3:11 of your video 💆🏾‍♀️

This was just *Chefs Kiss* amazing. hitting all the buttons on your channel because of this.

Another SUPERB video there Kevin, and another one for my CSS toolbox - thank you.

Nice pace and plethora of examples. Excellent tutorial. Thanks.

This video came right on time (after cracking my head for a few hours). Thanks Kevin!

Another gem, KP. I was hoping you'd say something about sprites (big images made by tiling all normal ones - makes for quicker loading of images from the web server) and their manipulation.

Thank you for the detail of this video. This is really fascinating!

I’m struggling with controlling a background video. You’re always close to my needs every show !!!! Css guru right here everybody🙌🏻 !! Oh @Kevin Powell btw 0.75x is my sweet spot when you’re zooming. It’s like your my kinda normal then lol. Otherwise I have to go drink 3 cups of coffee and then tell my dog to hold my beer I’m going for it on normal speed lol .. ty Kevin for your help and hard work..

Layering backgrounds can be fun. How about adding the common image overlay without a pseudo element or a dedicated overlay element.

WOW you are playing the hits this month!!! don't stop thank you!

One thing I will add in the video to be complete is how percentage works differently than lengths (px, em etc). In that the anchoring point of the image is different, kinda floating with every percentage change. It's an important enough information that may confuse a lot of people at first.

So not defining position for each of the background layers was why the background image and my gradiant layers would move out of wack. Finally! Thank you! Haha.

Where in the world has that second offset property for background-position been my entire career‽ Amazing.

A video suggestion: methods for guaranteeing sufficiently contrasting text on top of images. (given any image) This might entail for example: - Simple background-color in text element - background image overlaid with background gradients overlaid with text - careful use of css filter() ...With notes on the limitations of each method.

Thank you so much Kevin!!! Indeed it would be nice, if there is even more content with background-images such as background-attachment. Take care

Thank You for saving loads of web-surfing time. Really generous and useful content.

You are such a good teacher !!! Holy shyt 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

you're so helpful and easy to understand, i appreciate you!

Kevin, thank you so much for your CSS lessons!

this was such a great video as well !! thank you Kevin

Omg me at 1:52 👀🥴🤯🤦🏻‍♀️ I can’t believe it was that easy all along ! Lol

Hi Kevin, as always, thank you for great video! It would be cool if you can also show some examples how to deal with multiple fullscreen backgrounds. E.g. build some simple website with few text containers and add 3-4 1920x1080 backgrounds one below the other (or some big images in different sizes to add a bit of complexity) and then show how to control background and text container on responsive website.

Thank you , was struggling with some concepts while working, you made it easy

Thanks for all kevin, I really appreciate your content

Absolute legend 👑

Thank you Kevin! This was great. Could it be possible for you to make a video talking about accessibility? I believe you said you aren't an expert on it, but maybe you could teach us some basic things regarding aria roles and how screen readers work!

Your teaching skills is so precise and coherent... Thank you so much!

You are the best programmer bro!, keep it up and so nice bro!

I really like you kevin you are an amazing teacher

Many thanks for this video, many strange issues with background-images are clear now. BTW, you look awesome in these glasses: D

just got it Kevin . Great info. Thanks again

love love love LOVED this video

Thumbs up if you're Brazilian and thought it was fun to see the second imaged named "bandeirinha" (little flag). Those are typical littles flags of local folklore, called "bandeirinhas de São João". Thanks for the video, KP.

very helpful tutorial kevin. thanks for sharing

Another wonderful video. Thanks so much for your time and effort. Kevin, do you begin every project with a "base css" file that you apply to each and every project? For example, margin and box-size settings, etc., If so, can you recommend any? Thanks.

You are the best and your videos are life saver. ❤️

Thank you Kevin, super helpful content..👍🏽

Hello Kevin! Do have any video how to manage modal window with form inside, with phone, email, name inputs

Thanks for great video my man.

Muchas gracias amigo, me ayudaste para darle solución. ¡Saludos desde Perú!

VERY NICE!

I come from the future, the year 2024 to say thank you for this excellent tutorial! This video helped save planet Earth from awfull looking webpages! 🐒

Thank you so much, this was really helpful :)

Great video Kevin, thanks 😊

Thank you so much! You helped me a ton.

This helped me so much!!!

Thank you. It is a wonderful tutorial..

Note to myself: I completely watched the video.

Hello Kevin. I would love to find out how to control the scrolling behavior on parallax images. I have not worked with parallax a lot, but I am noticing where the view of the image starts at the very bottom and as you scroll down the page, the view of the image moves from the bottom to the top. I would prefer the opposite to happen. How do you recommend reversing the current scrolling behavior?

God of CSS

Nice explanations as always, Kevin. As a suggestion, although I've been working with css for a few years, in one project I had to finish for a client not so long ago, they were using border-image for making quite ellaborated frames for floating content, just using one image, taking part of that image to repeat horizontally and vertically, and also using some parts of the image as decoration. I had never used or seen something like that, but it was really useful for having just one image for variable sized floating info messages. Maybe you could do a video about it. Thanks!

Thanks for this tutorial.

dont you love it when a kickass person come flip your whole css-background world around ?

love this guy😂💯

This is cool. Thanks dude.

I still remember when I found out that "right 10px" works! 😅 What's your take on *border-image* ? There is even a border-image-outset property as a note to your last video with outline!

Hey Kev, when I define my backgorund position, it ain't going center or top center. But when I write center it moves down a little from the left corner of the page. Nor I've put any margin or padding. Can you explain what's happening. Although Dimensions of the image are 7509 Pixels * 5609 Pixels. could that be an issue ??

I have a situation that I couldn't quite figure out. I have an image where there are two faces in it, that are not centered. I don't want to crop the image to center the faces as at different screen sizes, the entire image does get used. I want those faces to be centered in the div at all sizes but I couldn't quite get it. I used percentages with background-position to try to create a "middle point" on their faces but it doesn't seem to keep them in the middle at all times. Am I thinking of this in the wrong way? Is this feasible?

it was very helpful, sir🥰

keep the great work thank u

Thank you so much for this wonderful video You solved my problem😍😍😍😍😍😍👍👍👍👍👌👌👌👌✨✨

Great video Kevin! Could it be possible to make a video about opacity in the background images in order to read correctly the text? Thank you!!

Thank you so much You really help me

Thank you so much sir ❤😍

Would "20px right 50px" give the same result as "top 20px right 50px"?

Thanks for the great video! Question - Is there a way to take an image that is background: cover and zoom in on it with css? Thanks!

But how do you just prevent the image from getting cropped in the first place? I want a background image to be resize with the page, and not have to worry about cropping and losing "focal points" and all that stuff.

This is awesome
