    Hi,
    I have seen posts about editing the CSS for the slide overlay. But when I enter them it doesn’t do anything. I am trying to get rid of the 40% gray scale over the slider images that is darkening them. I have tried using this CSS in the custom CSS section of the Design tab in Theme Options:
    .page-header .slide-overlay {
    background: none;
    }
    Thanks for any help!

    The code you’re looking for is in line 2492 of the style.css:

    Change from

    background: rgba(0, 0, 0, .4);

    to

    background: rgba(0, 0, 0, [here anything between 0 and .3]);

    Voila.

    I recommend using a child theme.

    Thanks! I am using a child theme. But I have installed the WP site within the “safe” mode on 1and1.com. What this means is I cannot access the database without disabling this feature. I’d rather not disable this feature because I will not be maintaining this site. So I was hoping the custom CSS area in this theme would work. Either I am not entering enough CSS (or the right CSS) or this feature of this theme just doesn’t work. Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Put this in the custom CSS area:

    .background-parallax:after {
	content: "";
	display: block;
	position: absolute;
	top: 0;
	left: 0;
	width: 100%;
	height: 100%;
	background: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);
}
