Wordpress Themes - WP Forum at BFA
There will be no more development for Atahualpa (or any other theme), and no support. Also no new registrations. I turned off the donation system. I may turn the forum to read only if it gets abused for spam. Unfortunately I have no time for the forum or the themes. Thanks a lot to the people who helped in all these years, especially Larry and of course: Paul. Take care and stay healthy -- Flynn, Atahualpa developer, Sep 2021

you can use this
HTML Code:
table#fp_posts_widget_area {
background-image:url('http://www.elprincipe.it/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/302181.jpg');
	filter: alpha(opacity=30);
	-moz-opacity:.30;
	opacity:.30;
}
BUT...opacity is an interesting thing, it effects all layers in the container you apply it to.

So since you have (this is simplified to make the explanation easier)

TABLE (has background image)
ROW
COLUMN1 (has text)
COLUMN2 (has text)
COLUMN3 (has text)
COLUMN4 (has text)

If you add the opacity to the TABLE, the text in each of the columns is effected since they are elements of TABLE. Other than making the image it self lighter, there is no way I know of to fade the image on the TABLE and leave the TEXT with out opacity
