Transparent Overly behind text #280

Closed cdoole closed 6 years ago

cdoole commented 6 years ago

I'm using your cover page template with a background image but I'm having trouble getting the text to stand out correctly and I don't want to resort to outrageous colours. How do I utilise a transparent overlay so it only applies to the text in the areas needed. I will include a link to the repository and you can download it to see the problem areas. The reason I ask is because I have never used an overlay before and I have no idea how to do it https://github.com/cdoole/my-site

Hey there, if you're looking to add a background-image, that can be done to the <body> or another element. Since it's a Bootstrap example, I'd recommend hitting up our Slack community or asking on Stack Overflow for general help and how-to info.
