CSS Question

[Brookreed]

I've been spending the morning working on my new site's CSS. Most everything is currently looking good, however there's one part of the CSS that I cannot seem to change. You can see here in the image my site. What I've been trying to do it change all the white space to a more slightly transparent color. I can't seem to find the part of the code that will change it, however. I was able to change the color of the background over it, but it won't turn transparent. So...help?

Try using this for the background color to make it transparent :happycbig::
background: rgba(0, 0, 0, .5);
( The first value is the amount of red, the second value is the amount of green and the third is the amount of blue. The last value is the opacity, in this case it would be at 50% opacity. c: )

Thanks. I actually figured it out--looks like I needed to just take a short break from coding, since I've been working on it all morning ^^''
