    Hi,

    It seems there is some kind of 'darkening' effect applied to the images being displayed by nivo slider on the front page. I would like to see what it looks like without that effect, but I can't figure out which css is responsible.

    Please advise?

    Hi Praveen,

    View cubemc.staging.wpengine.net to see the default image with the children displayed in the slider. Compare how this is displayed with the raw image which you can see at: http://cubemc.staging.wpengine.com/wp-content/themes/woodpeckertheme/images/slide1.jpg

    You will notice in the image the slider is being displayed much darker, ie as if some kind of css effect is being applied to reduce the 'brightness' of the image. I presume this effect is being done to make the white text easier to read, however we need to be able to turn this effect off for the images we need to use.

    Please paste the code given below in Custom CSS section
    (Appearance -> Theme Options -> Styling Options -> Custom CSS) of your dashboard.
    Code:
    .nivo-caption {
      background: none!important;
    }
    Hope it will resolve your issue.

    Kindest regards,
