I need a blog or something to explain some of my current practices with #drupal sitebuilding and frontend development.

Apparently, my maxims such as "there is no reason to use #css background images for anything anymore" are not obvious to others and take too long to explain in the middle of an unrelated meeting.

@mikemccaffrey Counterpoint: background-blend-mode. You can't do it with an absolutely-positioned img tag
@andy_blum @mikemccaffrey a
Also, is it possible to tile an absolutely positioned img tag?
@mandclu @mikemccaffrey not to my knowledge, no

@andy_blum @mandclu Man, I can't remember the last time I've needed to tile a background image. I guess that is still a use, if you need to do it.

Does background blend mode do anything mix blend mode doesn't do?

The mix-blend-mode CSS property sets how an element's content should blend with the content of the element's parent and the element's background.
