I'm trying to use linear gradients on a set of thin and small shapes (and fonts). But I can't figure out how to do it so it could be seen clearly as much as possible.

Should there by any limits for the number of colors? Does the angle matter?

I found this arrow used on a website:

It looks very thin but you can definitely see the gradient. I hope my eyes are not getting this wrong but to me it looks like a combination of blue and purple. or at least some parts are brighter. I tried to zoom in all the way to see the pixel but I all see is blue

I'm also interested applying gradients to some very thin fonts like Signale

Note that there will be only few characters used, and at small size (below 80pixels)

Well, the observation of the gradient will definitely be affected by the colors you choose and the size of the font.

As you can see in my image, the first letter is full blue while the other two have a two color gradient in them. The level of observation will be determined by the contrast in your choice of colors.

Also, for a font as thin as this one you probably shouldn't use more than two colors and the linear gradient will be noticed better than a radial one.
