In reply to: What is the best theme to choose to..?bdbrown, thanks for the hints, but many of these themes are not free and are stripped down.
I should instead ask, “What more popular free themes are easily able to be modified easily to rid of what I have posted as unnecessary features and yet fit my needs?

I will now attempt to create a prototype website. Since I am using wamp Localhost and I cannot post a URL to show my work in progress since I have no host yet, how do I post a view of my work when I need further help?
bcworksz, a picture is worth a thousand words, but could you link me to an example of what an overlay is or looks like?
Please forgive my inexperience and I certainly could use a little more help.
By “image mapping” on the overlay, how do I learn to use or even see an example of this technique. I don’t quite understand exactly what you mean.
Thanks Steve Stern, for your quicker than I can post a reply-reply!
Many thanks to Steve Stern and bcworkz.
bcworks, I will try to implement your advice:
I have some questions about creating a image-mapped foreground image, mainly how to create one that fills the home page as much as possible and positioned correctly on a full-screen desktop.
As I understand it so far(Please advise or correct me if I have made a misstep):
1) I remove as much other unwanted features and objects as possible, all pages, example posts..etc. This means I trash all extraneous text, sidebars, search field, images and menus, all footers, titles, etc from the original Imagination template. I have no need for these, please no Facebook, Contact us, Posts, etc.
2) I assume necessary, (but for me not-desirable) to then insert a large image relating to my specific website as the Featured Image, because it is necessary to fill the top of the Home Page and I cannot or should not place my image-links there.
3) I then create the needed 10 child pages as destinations to the ten links to be displayed in the middle body of the home page, creating each link as an independent and separate rectangular link-image and then attempt to add and align each of all 10 of these on the home page (using my custom CSS to achieve as close as possible what looks best.)
Please correct my assumptions below, if they are wrong:
I assume these image-links are Permalinks.
I assume I cannot create a background image on the home page, because I would not be able to place my image-links upon it.
The result of my effort would be a responsive home page.https://wordpress.org/support/topic/link-featured-background-image-to-post/
Shows how using an overlay it was possible to add a link to a background image:
“>
<div class=”overlay”></div>
Is it possible to create multiple overlays?
I know how to create links, but I want them to be separate objects, but integrated into, be part of the background image and not be forced to be placed by fixed assigned position by the template, but rather I want the links to be objects in the background image itself.
