-put another overlay and click "normal" to change the blending of overlay

-change background advance!

*<div style="background:url(-------);background-size:cover;">

and put </div> at the end of the text so you can only put background until you want

*<div style="background:url(-------");>...</div>

*<div style="background:url(-------);background-repeat:no-repeat;">

and it won't repeat the picture for the background
