@bkeyport Thank you! I realized after I made the post it is called gradient.
For future knowledge
change background-color to background-image and add linear-gradient with another RGBA value.
Thank you for your help.
Is there a way to have CSS go gradient to the left and to the right?
I have the news module at the bottom and I really just want it to be dark in the centre where the headlines are.
I have tried to right and to left, I have tried radial and nothing seems to work.
