This paragraph has a gradient background. The gradient background was first made in a painting program and then repeated horizontally across the paragraph element. It makes for a neat effect that also loads quickly! Because the image is very skinny, the file size is also very small. You could also create a gradient that changes color left to right and repeat it in the vertical direction to have a gradient on the side of your web page.
