Header Image Color Dull Ecto Theme

    Hi:
    I’m having trouble getting my header image to display the correct colors. I built the image the correct size for my theme, 1440 x 600 pixels, and with a background color of ffe5cf. This is the same background color specified with CSS for all posts and pages.

    But the header image color looks much duller. The color on the jpg I uploaded looks correct in the media library. It looks correct when prompted for cropping (which I skip). After that it shows up darker in the preview. How can I fix the header image so it displays the correct color and matches the rest of my blog?

    I have no problem with any other images on the blog looking dull; it’s just the header (and the featured images that use the same image).

    The blog I need help with is: https://whatacardcards.com/ .

    Thank you.

    There’s a translucent box shown over the top of the image which makes everything slightly darker. To remove it add this to your custom CSS:

    .has-header-image .site-header::before {
	background: none;
}
