Seo Master present to you: To get that vintage Instagram effect for your pictures you don't have to use a program, now you can use CSS and get a similar result! We will apply a shadow inside the image, add a border, we will put a color in it, and on top of our image, we will add another semitransparent image with a grunge style that will give a vintage touch.
You can see the example in this picture below, moving the cursor changes to normal but keeps the edge. Obviously there will be images that will fit better these effects than others, but regardless of that we do, there should be made a few observations:
Adding a Vintage Effect to Blogger Images Step 1. Go to Template > Edit HTML Step 2. Select the "Expand widget templates" box Step 3. Search for the following piece of code: ]]></b:skin> Step 4. Just above it, add the following CSS code: /* Vintage Images Note: In the first code, you see in bold the line that corresponds to the color of the image, you can change it to any other color, these are some examples of traditional vintage: background-color: rgba(0,0,255, 0.5); /* blue */ If you want the image to not change to its original state on mouse hover, then remove the last code: .vintage:hover:before { Step 5. After you've made your changes, click on Save Template Step 6. Finally, add this code inside your posts each time you want to apply the vintage effect to an image (switch to HTML tab if you want to use this code inside your post) <div class="vintage"> And add the URL of the image to where is the text in blue. And that's it, with this little experiment you can have your vintage-style images using CSS only. Enjoy! |
