A while ago I showed you how to create RSS feed logo with CSS3. I figured it’d be fun creating something a little bit more complex. In today’s post, I’m going to show you how to create not one, but two variations of Gmail logo using just CSS3.
Shortcuts to:
Gmail logo #1
This first logo is simple, and fairly easy to created. Without further ado, here are the steps. Let’s start with firing up your favourite code editor and enter the following HTML codes, and save it as logo-gmail.html.
<html>
<head>
<title>Gmail CSS Logo</title>
<style type='text/css'>
</style>
</head>
<body>
<span class='gmail-logo'>
<span class='gmail-box'> </span>
</span><!-- End .gmail-logo -->
</body>
</html>
Add the following CSS styles between <style></style> to reset default CSS values.
.gmail-logo,
.gmail-logo *,
.gmail-logo *:before,
.gmail-logo *:after {
margin:0;
padding:0;
background:transparent;
border:0;
outline:0;
display:block;
font:normal normal 0/0 serif;
}
The following CSS codes give us the Gmail logo’s red background and a rounded sides.
.gmail-logo {
margin:110px auto;
background:rgb(201, 44, 25);
width:600px;
height:400px;
border-top:4px solid rgb(201, 44, 25);
border-bottom:4px solid rgb(201, 44, 25);
border-radius:10px;
-moz-border-radius:10px;
-webkit-border-radius:10px;
}
Then, we proceed creating the white box within the red background.
.gmail-logo .gmail-box {
overflow:hidden;
float:left;
width:440px;
height:400px;
margin:0 0 0 80px;
background:white;
border-radius:5px;
-moz-border-radius:5px;
-webkit-border-radius:5px;
}
In order to create the red "M" effect, we’ll first create a box with red border.
.gmail-logo .gmail-box:before {
position:relative;
content:'';
z-index:1;
background:white;
float:left;
width:320px;
height:320px;
border:100px solid rgb(201, 44, 25);
margin:-310px 0 0 -40px;
border-radius:10px;
-moz-border-radius:10px;
-webkit-border-radius:10px;
-moz-transform:rotate(45deg);
-webkit-transform:rotate(45deg);
-o-transform:rotate(45deg);
}
Then we proceed hiding the excessive sides, giving us a complete "M" in red color.
.gmail-logo .gmail-box {
overflow:hidden;
}
Now, let’s give two thin red border, giving it the envelope look.
.gmail-logo .gmail-box:after {
content:'';
float:left;
width:360px;
height:360px;
border:2px solid rgb(201, 44, 25);
margin:10px 0 0 40px;
-o-transform:rotate(45deg);
-webkit-transform:rotate(45deg);
-moz-transform:rotate(45deg);
}
We are almost done. Let’s add some gradient to the red envelope.
.gmail-logo:after {
content:'';
position:relative;
z-index:2;
content:'';
float:left;
margin-top:-404px;
width:600px;
height:408px;
display:block;
background:
-moz-linear-gradient(top, rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.3) 0%,
/* rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.3) 30%, */
rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.1) 100%);
background:-o-linear-gradient(top, rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.3) 0%,
/* rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.2) 30%, */
rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.1) 100%);
background:-webkit-gradient(
linear, left top, left bottom, color-stop(0%,
rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.3)),
/* color-stop(30%, rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.2)), */
color-stop(100%, rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.1)));
}
Last but not least, let’s give it a different color upon hovered. Add the following HTML DOCTYPE before <html>
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
And the following CSS styles before </style>
.gmail-logo:hover {
background:#313131;
border-color:#313131;
/* cursor:pointer; */
}
.gmail-logo:hover .gmail-box:before {
border-color:#313131;
}
.gmail-logo:hover .gmail-box:after {
border-color:#313131;
border-bottom-color:#fff;
border-right-color:#fff;
}

Gmail logo #2
Next, we’ll create Gmail logo from another perspective with a little 3D effect. We’ll start with the basic HTML markup.
<html>
<head>
<title>Gmail logo 2 </title>
<style type="text/css">
</style>
</head>
<body>
<span id='gmail-logo2'>
<span class='element1'> </span>
<span class='element2'> </span>
<span class='element3'> </span>
<span class='element4'> </span>
<span class='element5'> </span>
</span>
</body>
</html>
Since the logo has a different perspective, we’ll start by rotating it a little and create the layers needed (which we’ll call them elements) in sequence.
#gmail-logo2 {
margin:0 auto;
display:block;
width:380px;
height:290px;
-moz-transform:rotate(6deg);
-webkit-transform:rotate(6deg);
