title: Can you set background colour of background image CSS?
body: <p>bit of a strange request but I was wondering if it is possible to set the background colour of a background image applied to a div? I know you can set the background colour of an <code>&lt;img /&gt;</code>. </p>
  
  <p>I've tried:</p>
  
  <p><code>background: #FFFFFF url(image.png) no-repeat bottom center;</code></p>
  
  <p>Which just changes the colour of the div that the image is applied to.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks for any help at all</p>
  
  <p>*edit, added image to better explain issue:</p>
  
  <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/obGCo.png" alt="enter image description here"></p>
  
  <p>The last pod in this right hand nav has the background image/shadow applied, i would ideally like to give this shadow a background color so that it blends in with the background of the page rather than being white like the containing div.</p>
