Darken Image Overlay And Add Text Over It In CSS

Post a Comment
How would I darken (add a semi-transparent overlay) and add text to this image (but centred horizontally and vertically) as below: HTML ; width:1px; height:100%; vertical-align:middle; display:inline-block; } .text span{ display:inline-block; vertical-align:middle; } 
<div class="wrap">
    <img src="http://luxurylaunches.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/uber-london.jpg" id="top" data-appear-animation="fadeIn" />
    <div class="text"><span>Text over the image
        <br/>Second line</span></div>
</div>

Solution 2:

html

<div id='back'><div id='mask'><div id='text'>fsfsfsssf</div></div></div>

css

body{
    margin:0px;
}
#back{
    width:100%;
    height:500px;
    background: url("http://luxurylaunches.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/uber-london.jpg") no-repeat;
    background-size:contain;
}
#mask{
    position:relative;  
    width:100%; 
    height:500px; 
    background:rgba(255,255,255,0.5); 
}
#text{
    position:absolute;
    top:230px;
    left:48%;
}
