I know it is possible with Google Map API v3 (MapTypeStyler option) but do you think it is with Leaflet API ?

Thing is that I have text that cover a map I need to make more visible by adjusting brightness or – even better – by applying blur effect like in this example : http://www.hongkiat.com/blog/css-filter/

CSS shader looks very promising but supported only with latest Chrome browser.

The text over the map is modal (user must interact with button) and I could add overlay with a PNG image file. I don’t like to much this solution that need unnecessary file to be transfered to the client.

Thank you,

    Leaflet is very lightweight and simply puts references to tile images on your html page. So I see two options to change the look of the tiles:

    CSS

    Which indeed depends on the browser.

    Custom tiles

    Leaflet will display tiles from any server. You can for example pick one of the many styles served by cloudmade or make one of your own there.
    Or use a tool like TileMill to create (and perhaps even host) them yourself.
