Does anyone here speak html?

Post by TheAnswerIs42 »

So I went a little crazy on the blog last night, and made my own background. I had trouble making the minima three columns, so I just took the code from here, since I liked the black text with a translucent white box behind it. And then I switched out the background for my own, no problems there. But the problem is that not only is the white box translucent, but my pictures in my blog posts are also translucent. I find this highly annoying. Does anyone know how to fix that? I think (and, wow, I know nothing about html code), but I think that the translucency comes from the line

filter:alpha(opacity=80); -moz-opacity:0.80; opacity:0.80; -khtml-opacity:0.80;

which is strategically placed for all the boxes. Is part of that making the actual post 80%, not just the box behind it?

If I can't fix it, I can just delete those lines and make them solid, but I liked the look of translucency. And my husband does computers, but he is more of a network/IT guy than a CS/programming guy. Any ideas?

What is your blog url to look at the coding altogether?
