Darkening Gradient on Images

    Hello:

    New to the forum and to WP. I’d really appreciate some help.

    I’m having an issue with the Twenty Seventeen Theme.

    Seems there is a darkening gradient that is there by default on top all of my images. Most of my images have lots of white and it really messes it up.

    I was able to use:

    .custom-header-media:before {
    background: none;
    }

    To get rid of the darkening over the header image.

    But I am lost as to how to do this with the images on the rest of the pages?

    For example, I have a featured image set on my “More About me” Page that I created. I can’t get rid of the darkening gradient over that page.

    Can anyone help?

    Thank you.

    Can you show us the page with this featured image?

    Thanks for your response.

    You can see it here: https://www.zedsaeedphoto.com/

    The default header image is *not* showing that darkening effect, because of the lines of code I inserted. (See my original post.) But the rest of the featured images show the effect as you scroll past them.

    The effect is most visible on the large b/w images.

    I am surprised that this is not a known or discussed issue, since it seems to be the default behavior in the Twenty Seventeen theme.

    Thanks for your help.

    In the “Additional CSS” section of the dashboard add this:

    
.custom-header-media:before,
.panel-image:before {
    background: none;
}

    Whew!

    And just like that. It was gone.

    Thank you my friend.
