 * The color overlay for header images in the Kelly theme is setup with the following
   CSS in the theme:
 *     ```
       .header-background {
       	background: rgba(6,156,136,0.75);
       }
       ```
   
 * You can remove that background color by adding this to a custom CSS editor such
   as the one that comes with [Jetpack](http://jetpack.me/):
 *     ```
       .header-background {
       	background: none;
       }
       ```
