Resize the image to fit the div size.
With CSS3 you can do this:
/* with CSS 3 */
#yourdiv {
background: url('bgimage.jpg') no-repeat;
background-size: 100%;
}
How Do you Stretch a Background Image in a Web Page:
About opacity
#yourdiv {
opacity: 0.4;
filter: alpha(opacity=40); /* For IE8 and earlier */
}
Or look at CSS Image Opacity / Transparency
To automatically enlarge the image and cover the entire div section without leaving any part of it unfilled, use:
background-size: cover;
Try below code segment, I've tried it myself before :
#your-div {
background: url("your-image-link") no-repeat;
background-size: cover;
background-clip: border-box;
}
Rather than giving background-size:100%;
We can give background-size:contain;

This worked perfectly for me
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-size: 100% 100%;
This will work like a charm.
background-image:url("http://assets.toptal.io/uploads/blog/category/logo/4/php.png");
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-size: contain;
