Trying to do what I thought would be something simple.  I created a new background image for the module; check. I added the following HTML to show the requisite text; check.

The text, however, is showing up in a white box and therefore blocking out part of the background image. I tried adding a background-color:transparent to div style, nothing.  I can use that to set the textual area to other colors, i.e. red and it worked perfectly.

So what is the trick to have the text show and the background image show through.

website is www.newleveltraders.com and the only slide currently being edited is "Trading"

Hello,

You have a class called blank1BM being called on the index.php of your site with a white background on it. This class is applied to the module you have published in the slides.
