asked on

take transparency off logos

How do I remove the transparency effect from the logos that appear in orange boxes (Control 4 and Cedia) below the navigation?  I tried a couple things and nothing seemed to work.

img.logos_sidebar {
		padding: 10px 0px 2px 12px;
		z-index:999;}

.sidebar_logos {
	float: left;
	width: 180px;
	background-color: #eaa53e;
	border:2px solid #006576;
	margin: 5px 0px;
}

<div class="sidebar_logos"><a href="http://www.control4.com/info/home-automation?gclid=COPQwduB6rsCFclaMgod8H4AKA" target="_blank"><img src="img/logo_control4.png" alt="Control 4 Dealer" width="156" height="155" class="logos_sidebar" /></a></div>
        <div class="sidebar_logos"><a href="http://www.cedia.net/" target="_blank"><img src="img/logo_cedia.png" alt="Cedia Professional Certification" width="155" height="213" class="logos_sidebar" /></a></div>

Change your background-color in .sidebar_logos {} to

rgba(234, 165, 62, 0.8)

Remove

.sidebar1 div {
    opacity: 0.8;
}
Actually this make more sense

just remove the background-color from  .sidebar_logos {}

Remove the opacity: 0.8; from .sidebar1 div {} and instead add in background:rgba(234, 165, 62, 0.8)

Cathal, I tried your solutions but they did not work.  
TommyBoy, I am not sure how to implement what you suggest.
Update your code online - it does work. You may have missed my edit

Remove
.sidebar1 div {
    opacity: 0.8;
}


Or follow my second example method
Client just told me she ALSO wants the turquoise bar at the top and the side borders to be solid, not transparent. Ugh!  How do i do that?  The red arrows are pointing to the problem areas.   Ask me how much I like transparency.  Go ahead - I dare ya!  LOL

Cathal,

I removed the reference below and uploaded page.  I cleared history.  I don't see any change.

.sidebar1 div {
    opacity: 0.8;
}
