CSS3 Patterns Gallery
Posted by Dion Almaer about a year ago on css css3 patterns
Lea Verou is doing fantastic work in the world of CSS. Her CSS3 Patterns Gallery playground is a great example of that work.
It is a great way to grab a pattern that you would like, but more importantly, you can learn a lot from the source and also easily tweak it and see a real-time preview of the changes.
For example, go change the tartan example to match your clan!
