Background Transparency on Subpages

With recent upgrades allowing custom background images, you can now show off those images even more with new transparency controls. Create and adjust the transparency of the main body of your subpages, allowing greater visual impact while still having your text easily readable. You'll find the control for this in the CSS part of the Website Editor, at the bottom of the page.

Our Service

Online Church Solutions is a website builder (CMS) and church management software (ChMS) for churches, ministries, missionaries and other non-profits—all in one place, all for one price. We also offer sermon podcasting with iTunes Page for an additional yearly price.
