You can enter a url or browse your computer for an image, then select how much image will show in the reflection and what color to fade into. This is a screen shot from the site:

Reflection Sample

As you can see the best part of this generator is it has a download button. Clicking the button will save the image to your computer in .jpg form.

Most of them are created using an online stripe generator. This shouldn’t be considered cheating, and is really handy for new designers without the income to have software like Adobe Photoshop or Illustrator. For the veteran designer, this service allows more time to code pages rather than Photoshop a striped background.
