    Hey everyone,

    I'm totally new working with WordPress and html, so I hope you guys can help me out with this. I managed to make my page transparent against my background (using Twenty Eleven theme) by putting this in the style.css right in the beginning:

    body {
    background: #fff;
    filter:alpha(opacity=90);
    -moz-opacity:0.9;
    -khtml-opacity: 0.9;
    opacity: 0.9;
    line-height: 1;

    It's probably in the wrong place, because I want to avoid that the header image will also appear to be transparent. How can I keep this transparency for the text (white areas) while keeping the header image non-translucent?

    my website is

    Thanks in advance!

    Do not edit the Twenty Eleven theme. It is the default WordPress 3.2 theme and having access to an unedited version of the theme is vital when dealing with a range of site issues.

    Create a child theme for your customisations. Once your child theme is active, we should be able to help with the customisation.

    Thanks for your help, Esmi. I'll dive into this child theme thing and see what I can come up with..
