 * As a total wordpress newby, I am building a website for a boy scout troop. The
   problem I am having is that I would like to increase the transparency of the 
   header over the image. As is, the header is quite dark and obscures the image
   which is pretty light. I found a comment that the transparency will be adjusted
   automatically but it does not seem to change. Can someone help me lighten the
   transparency so the image shows through it clearly?
 * the website is adoberanchacres.org and I have provided editor level access using
   the login HelpMePlease and PW thankyou
 * If you can help me, please feel free to lighten it to be very transparent and
   show me the code or where I do that?
 * This is my third day learning so forgive me ignorance. I am studying.

 * you can add this in the CSS :
 * .site-header:after {
    opacity: 1; }
 * and you can manage the opacity

 * It will not work in the .css, you have to modify the file custom-header.php and
   find the function `function alizee_header_style()`
    Then find the line `opacity:
   0,4;` and change 0.4 by 1
