Solution retrospective

As you can see when comparing my design to the one in the given design image, it's not quite there yet. I tried using :before for the overlay and adjusted it with CSS filters, but after a few hours, I gave up and stuck with what I had. I feel like CSS filters would make this convenient, but it's difficult to choose a color with specific RGB/HEX/HSL values. Is there a more convenient way to use a color overlay on an image?

Hello @StephenYu2018,

Here is an idea for how to create an image overlay:

.card-img {
  background-image: linear-gradient(
      rgba(66, 9, 102, 0.6),
      rgba(66, 9, 102, 0.6)
    ), url("images/image-header-desktop.jpg");
  background-size: cover;
  background-position: center;
  background-repeat: no-repeat;
}

This is what I used for my solution. If you are interested you can check it out here.

Happy Coding!
