    Hi there,

    It's called an "image overlay" or "background image overlay". A quick search on Google will return plenty of tutorials and examples!

    Either way, you need to add some CSS to your stylesheet!

    🙂

    Sorry to write in my old thread but I look at the tutorials and it seems to that I need to create a div called overlay and then add css. Is there and easier way to do this? I need a linear gradient just like theultralinx.com to my theme: Nosidebar by studiopress.

    Can you pleas tell me what I should add this feature only with css? Looks like I need something more when I look at tutorials. It would be very nice of you if you can tell me spesific how to target this the right way.
