 Haha, I'll have a cuppa too.

 But I think it's pretty cool. Just use a 1x1px tranpsarent PNG background
 image (repeat) for your opacity problem. It'll just make it easier.

 Menu is a bit tricky to navigate - bigger maybe. The main body of text
 could do with more space to the left. Considering you are using browns
 everywhere I think you could get away with using two fonts for headlines
 e.g. H1: something; H2: something else.

 If you're out off tea a few crates of wine will do.

 Cheers, CB

Bang the browser reload button a couple of times. Does the logo jump on top?

I tried

background: rgba(255,247,200,.75) ...

but it didn't work in Chrome's developer console, so I don't know if it'll 
actually work.  It makes the yellow translucent, but I don't know if it'll 
make the image transparent as well.  Might we worth a shot.

The other option is making the image .75 opaque in a graphs program, and using 
a lighter yellow for the background.  Would give the same effect, but wouldn't 
be using CSS.

It won't -of course- affect the image. rgba(255,247,200,.75) is a _color_ value.
As you say, if the image needs a bleached-out look, edit it in a dedicated app.

Using rgba() color values is the way to go for what the OP want.

I didn't think it was quite that obvious...  I'll admit, i didn't think it 
likely, but I thought it plausible that assigning an alpha value to the color 
of the background might affect the rest of the background too.

But what I found was happening was that assigning a rgba color value to the 
background made the background image go away completely - which is broken 
behavior in anyone's book.  Thankfully that behavior only manifests itself in 
the developer console.

An actual page load does work exactly like you say, and as I expected.
