    Download (and install) a Custom CSS Manager plugin.
    Then apply CSS within the section of the dashboard allocated by that plugin, the CSS modification.

    You’ll need to apply a background-image property and link to an image that has the opacity you want, to the HTML elements you want.

    So using the Custom CSS Manager i can make the header and content area transparent? Take a look at https://www.deebat.dk, where you can see the background image, but the header and content area hides some of it..

    No my fault. So the idea is to put an image as background in the header and the content part (what is that called) and set the opacity at a low level to make the image transparent? Can i use any image or do it need to be a specific one? Imagine the opacity will make this obsolete?

    Yes.

    I think the image needs to be a .png or .gif file extension to hold transparency, but any image is fine.

    I think you need to make it. There may be some services online that make them for you, but I don’t know of any.

    Sorry, I don’t quite get what you’re asking for here.
