sepia function

The sepia function allows you to turn a background image into sepia - a black and white image with a brown tint. The 0 value means that the image will remain original. The value of 100% or 1 turns the background completely to sepia. Any number located in this range sets the usage of sepia linearly. A negative value cannot be specified. The default value is 0.

Syntax

selector {
	filter: sepia(number);
}

Example

Let's make our image full sepia:

<div id="elem"></div>

#elem {
	filter: sepia(100%);
	background: url("bg.png") center / cover no-repeat;
	width: 400px;
	height: 300px;
	border: 1px solid black;
}

Example

Now let's reduce the sepia usage by 50%:

<div id="elem"></div>

#elem {
	filter: sepia(50%);
	background: url("bg.png") center / cover no-repeat;
	width: 400px;
	height: 300px;
	border: 1px solid black;
}

Example

Now let's set the sepia function to a value equal to 0:

<div id="elem"></div>

#elem {
	filter: sepia(0);
	background: url("bg.png") center / cover no-repeat;
	width: 400px;
	height: 300px;
	border: 1px solid black;
}
