 * Hi Guys
 * As previously mentioned. Love the plugin for its simplicity and low bloat 🙂
 * That said i do have a small edit/feature request.
 * When using the slider as a main hero slider ( 1 full width image with content),
   Id like the ability to use CSS to add an overlay or “filter” to the image. This
   can done done by adding the following :
 *     ```
       .sa_hover_container::after {
           background: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5) none repeat scroll 0 0;
           box-sizing: inherit;
           content: "";
           height: 100%;
           left: 0;
           pointer-events: none;
           position: absolute;
           top: 0;
           width: 100%;
       }
       ```
   
 * Which adds a transparent overlay to the background image, making it slightly 
   darker or tinted depending on the above background colour/transparency.
 * Unfortunately because the current background div, also contains the content, 
   the overlay also covers the content too.
 * Ideally id just like the background image, to be a separate div to the content
   so when the :after css is applied to the background, it doesn’t cover/fade the
   content too.
 * Obviously just a suggestion to give a bit more flexibility for customisation 
   without having to upload images with an overlay on them.
