Backcountry – transparency issue

[defree99]

I'm using the Backcounty theme here:

I want to make the home page body transparent - but just on the home page.

I've tried making changing the bg.jpg file to a transparent bg.png file and making the change in the style sheet but it isn't working.

1) Any ideas how I can do this?

2) And also make this change occur so transparency is only on the home page?

Looks like it's the #inner ID. To target only the home page, use .home first.

Like this:

(transparent black)
.home #inner {
background-color: rgba(0,0,0,0.8);
}

(transparent white)
.home #inner {
background-color: rgba(250,250,250,0.8);
}

The 0.8 in both of these is the amount of transparency. Adjust accordingly.
You'll probably have to play with the font color too, depending on what you go with.

Is this what you're looking for?

Add an extra selector right below you #inner declaration in your stylesheet with this:

.home #inner {
	zoom: 1;
	filter: alpha(opacity=50);
	opacity: 0.5;
}

Adjust the 50 and 0.5 accordingly
