Rollover effect on banner/thumbnail image

Hi, 

I'm trying to create a rollover fade effect on my welcome header banner here https://cheetah-lemon-wxxb.squarespace.com/

The look I'm trying to recreate is just like this non-squarespace website http://harperandharley.com/, is there any way to achieve this look with custom css?

I'm going for the same treatment on the text as well as the image.

Any help is very much appreciated.

Eek! Try again? I thought I saved the new settings. I've just made sure of it.

You mean banner image below "Branding for you with strategy and style"?

Seems difficult, it same background image

Thank you for your response. Yes, the banner image behind "Branding for you with strategy and style".

Perhaps there is another way to do it? I don't mind changing things up to get the same look and effect.

@SabinaP Add to Home > Design > Custom CSS

/* Set overlay background - Hidden */
section#welcome:before {
    content: "";
    background: rgba(0,0,0,0.5);
    display: block;
    width: 100%;
    height: 100%;
    position: absolute;
    opacity: 0;
}
/* Show overlay */
section#welcome:hover:before {
    opacity: 0.5;
}

Hmm, I have done that. It nearly mimics the same effect, but not quite there yet.

@tuanphan I changed the colour in your code and it's looking very similar now, thank you, I really like it. Is there a way to hide/reveal the text on rollover too?

@SabinaP Remove code I sent, and use this

section#welcome:before {
    content: "";
    background: rgba(255,255,255,0.7);
    display: block;
    width: 100%;
    height: 100%;
    position: absolute;
    opacity: 0;
	visibility: hidden;
    -moz-transition: all .3s ease;
    -o-transition: all .3s ease;
    -webkit-transition: all .3s ease;
    transition: all .3s ease;
}
section#welcome:hover:before {
    opacity: 1;
	visibility: visible;
}
/* Hide text on hover */
section#welcome:hover .sqs-block-content * {
    visibility: hidden;
}

@tuanphan Thank you!
Eep, I was aiming for the opposite effect, my apologies, I wasn't clear. It would be cool to have the text visible on hover. 

@tuanphan!! That did it! Thank you!!

I am new to using code and tried to get this to work on my site. But couldn't. I would love to have this option for a couple of my pages. Where do I put this code. I tried it in Design/Custom CSS and that didn't work. But I also don't know if I need site/page specific info to modify the code. Can you help.

Hi. You mean this banner?

Yes, this banner would be one page I would like to be able to have a roll over.
