how to display text over an image in Bootstrap 3.1

Answer 1

I don't think this is possible using bootstrap classes. You can just do something like this by adding thumbnail to the image and thumbnail_legend to the next div.

.thumbnail_legend {
    background: none repeat scroll 0 0 #FFFFFF;
    opacity: 0.5;
    top:0;
    left:0;
    position: absolute;
}

.thumbnail {
    position:relative;
}
