 * Hi!
 * I have been looking for a solution to this for months. I’ve read all the posts
   about this topic and nothing works. I wanted to remove the dark overlay so I 
   used the code that was suggested by Anders but as he mentioned, it creates a 
   black rectangle at the bottom. I want my entire home page to be a different colour
   with no break to this black bottom bar. Is there any way to fully remove it?
 * Thank you so much in advance.
    MP

 * Hi MP,
 * I am currently using and trying to adjust the same theme.
    You could try the 
   following code (when you adjust the CSS) :
 * .header-image, .header-image::after {
    height: 150vh; }
 * And then change the height to more vh, so it covers the bottom bar.
 * Greetings,
 * Anschr.
