Read Original

This article critiques the trend of creating complex images, like the Mona Lisa, using pure CSS. The author acknowledges the technical skill but argues it's an abuse of CSS, which is meant for document presentation, not illustration. The post compares CSS 'images' to SVG, highlighting SVG's superiority in scalability, caching, and semantic markup, and questions the practical future of such CSS hacks.
