Change color of PNG image via CSS?
I found this great codepen example that you insert your hex color value and it returns the needed filter to apply this color to png
CSS filter generator to convert from black to target hex color
for example i needed my png to have the following color #1a9790
then you have to apply the following filter to you png
filter: invert(48%) sepia(13%) saturate(3207%) hue-rotate(130deg) brightness(95%) contrast(80%);
PS: The codepen is based on this brilliant answer by MultiplyByZer0 here: How to transform black into any given color using only CSS filters
all credits goes to him :clap:
You can use filters with -webkit-filter and filter:
Filters are relatively new to browsers but supported in over 90% of browsers according to the following CanIUse table: https://caniuse.com/#feat=css-filters
You can change an image to grayscale, sepia and lot more (look at the example).
So you can now change the color of a PNG file with filters.
body {
background-color:#03030a;
min-width: 800px;
min-height: 400px
}
img {
width:20%;
float:left;
margin:0;
}
/*Filter styles*/
.saturate { filter: saturate(3); }
.grayscale { filter: grayscale(100%); }
.contrast { filter: contrast(160%); }
.brightness { filter: brightness(0.25); }
.blur { filter: blur(3px); }
.invert { filter: invert(100%); }
.sepia { filter: sepia(100%); }
.huerotate { filter: hue-rotate(180deg); }
.rss.opacity { filter: opacity(50%); }<!--- img src http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/ec/Mona_Lisa%2C_by_Leonardo_da_Vinci%2C_from_C2RMF_retouched.jpg/500px-Mona_Lisa%2C_by_Leonardo_da_Vinci%2C_from_C2RMF_retouched.jpg -->
