 * Hello,
 * I’ve just downloaded the Ignis theme. The header photo is too dark for what I
   want. Is there a way to change the opacity of the overlay or to change the color?
   when I use the css code:
    .wp-custom-header::after { display: none; }
 * it takes away the overlay completely, but the image background once the overlay
   is removed completely clashes with the moving text, making it hard to read.
    
   How can I change the darkness or color of the overlay that’s over the background
   image?

 * [@romanbon](https://wordpress.org/support/users/romanbon/) I ended up just photoshopping
   the image opacity.
    Thanks though!
