 * I am having a hard time taking the background out of the banner. I have tried
   these solutions out to edit the css file with the following:
 * background-color: none;
    background: transparent; background-color: transparent;
   background: none; background: rgba(0,0,0,0);
 * None of this works, there is no option to give transparency on the color picker.
   I am trying to add images with a transparent background.
 * Can you offer an idea or solution?

 * Hello!
 * Could you please share a link to your site, so I could take a look at it, and
   hopefully provide you with the necessary css?
 * For any image to appear transparent, it has to be a `.png` image, with the transparent
   parts already set up in some photo editing software, so make sure that your image
   is set up this way.

 * If you want a different Banner background image, then simply go into the Theme
   Options (APPEARANCE > THEME OPTIONS) and either
 * (A) Remove the existing banner image, if you don’t want it, or
    (b) Upload a 
   new, transparent png, for your new banner image
