Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Currently, a light-colored translucent box is used on top of the background images. It was used as a way to make the words accessible, but it's hindering the legibility in a lot of cases.
Describe the solution you'd like
Generate a background image that complies with WCAG a11y standards.
Describe alternatives you've considered
randomized pride flag colored backgrounds masked to lighten them up and allow for AA accessibility
