    Text shadow can help in some cases, but I don’t think it’ll work here with a large paragraph.

    What I recommend is to add a background colour behind your text so that the image is blocked out. If you still want to see the image, you can change the background colour to be translucent instead of opaque.
    For example, in the “Additional CSS” part of the dashboard, add this:

    
    .home #layout {
        padding: 20px;
        background: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5);
    }

    Andrew, thanks a lot. This looks much better. I didn’t not exactly mean text-shadow. In photoshop there is a text option called ‘stroke’ then you can use auto-shadow. But anyway i am satisfied the way it looks now. appreciated.
