Suggestions for a blurry header background

[JohnnieNiz]

Hello,

I need a suggestion for the h1 tag. I'm trying to get a blurry background, but I don't like how it signals the containers behind it.

Does anyone have a better suggestion, or is it possible to make a radial blur effect?

Not sure how it would look. but have you tried adding a box shadow to the div it might give it enough of a 'feather' that you won't see the lines anymore but honestly, it's already so hard to notice that the average viewer isn't going to see it. you could also just try adding a stronger border radius to round out the most noticeable square edge, and that might be enough.

I will give it a try to both. I couldn't find any radial blur.

Radial blur? I hope it's the effect you were looking for!

Oh, that's an interesting take. Didn't think of that. I will give it a try on my own.
