  The first suggestion I’d make would be to add an overlay to the image before uploading it (or upload a new copy that is already faded out a bit.

  You can use image editing software on your computer, or look for online options like http://photogramio.com/photoshop.

  Here’s an example of how you could add an overlay with that one:

  The other option would be to use Custom CSS, which would require a Premium Plan or Business Plan.

  OMG!! You are soo smart! I have been struggling with this for a year. I used an ordinary editing site to get an overlay , faded it out and it worked.

  Thanks again!

  I appreciate it.
