  Hi,

  I was wondering if it was possible to make text appear over images, for example, as shown on this page: https://www.w3schools.com/howto/howto_css_image_text.asp

  Is it possible to replicate this on a WordPress.com blog?

  Thank you

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi, you could do that if you have a plan that supports custom CSS:
  https://wordpress.com/plans

  You could also write the CSS inline, but I’d recommend against that.

  One other option, depending on what you’re after, is to pick a theme that uses featured images as a background, like one of these:
  https://canarddemo.wordpress.com/
  https://wordpress.com/theme/intergalactic-2

  There are more at wordpress.com/themes

  Hi,

  If you have a WordPress Premium or Business plan, you can use Custom CSS on your site: https://en.support.wordpress.com/custom-css/

  There is also a dedicated Custom CSS support forum: https://en.forums.wordpress.com/forum/css-customization/

  As well as Live Chat Support if you have one of the above plans: https://en.support.wordpress.com/custom-design/css-support-in-live-chat/

  Hope this helps :)
