Multiple Background Images

Get to grips with CSS3 multiple background images

We no longer need to worry in regards to background images. Now, we have CSS3 and the ability to apply multiple background images to any element we like. Creative freedom! In this tutorial I’d like to take you through creating a 404 page design using multiple background images.


Our final design shows the error message with a search box, presented in a sign suspended from a balloon hovering over a landscape. At the top, there is one large cloud with a few smaller clouds scattered over the sky. We’ll also keep the ‘404’ on the page to indicate the error. ?Our hidden surprise is to use a subtle parallax effect to shift the position of the mountain peaks, hills, and the clouds when the browser window is resized.
