The webflow ads have piqued my interest. A lot of nice little projects are shown on Show HN but I don't know if I've ever seen any to feature any sort of sponsorship right off the bat. Pretty clever to throw that in there. Do you have any lessons learned to share about the process behind it? (If it came from an easy personal connection just to show proof of concept, that's cool too!)

Most of the gradients are slight variations of magenta and turquoise.<p>All the websites go for that now. I see a lot of hipstery designer stuff with that look. Vaporwave &#x2F; aesthetic whatever. It&#x27;s all magenta and turquoise.<p>So dull.<p>Your names for the color combos are worse than urban decay eyeshadows.

Nice page, Seems very similar to <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;webgradients.com" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;webgradients.com</a>

This website on my mobile browser is the most visually pleasing experience I&#x27;ve had today. Bravo.

Very nice! Instantly made me think of that receptionist girl in <i>Total Recall</i>, Schwarzenegger version.<p>Edit, this: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=in7QyUBV6Fk" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=in7QyUBV6Fk</a>

I&#x27;d love if I could filter this by target color(s), and see a subset that approximate that selection. Being able to select &quot;red to orange&quot; or &quot;blue to green&quot; would be great! Even some approximation of hex codes would be cool too.

Another <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;uigradients.com&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;uigradients.com&#x2F;</a>, but with some very, um, brogrammer-y naming decisions. I&#x27;m somewhat confused as to why this is on the front page.

Couldn&#x27;t read them all, but I&#x27;m curious if there&#x27;s a name referencing the company Stripe?<p>... These gradients always remind me of their website

This is cool! One of the top comments on Indiehackers (if I remember correctly) was to click on an egg to change the background color - I&#x27;m gonna echo that here.<p>Love the &quot;remember to bookmark&quot; label!

Number nine is &quot;Homeless Man&#x27;s Joy&quot;. That&#x27;s a great look for our community.

You should add a search bar at the top that will filter based on similar colors.<p>I usually know in general what color scheme I want when building something, but need to search online to find the exact colors that look good.

Those names are really something. Love it.

Sorry, I must be missing something. Is this is a page full of gradient fills on egg shaped circles, infused with ads, with completely random names?

Is there any easy way to share an egg? I showed this to my colleagues at work and was trying to share a particular egg, but couldn&#x27;t spot anything clickable for this. Inspecting the HTML, it doesn&#x27;t look like any of the eggs have ids on them that could be used as anchors.

I&#x27;ve seen variations on this dead-simple concept so many times I made my own two months ago:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;codepen.io&#x2F;fenwick&#x2F;pen&#x2F;YYdXXb" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;codepen.io&#x2F;fenwick&#x2F;pen&#x2F;YYdXXb</a>

It would be great if there was a button to set gradient as background for preview.

Like them a lot. A button to make the background #333 would be nice.

The alias cursor on the text seems a bit strange. Especially since clicking doesn&#x27;t do anything.
