Adding text to the top or side of a picture, then using css to customize it - html

hello people of stack overflow. I have a picture on my website and i was wondering how i can enter text to the side of the photo. How would i then use css to customize the text font and color ext. If this is possible how would i also put text on the top of a picture? Right now i am using bootstrap, so my picture is in a specific "row". I will add the link to my test website if you are wondering what i mean by that.

Is it possible to make part of an html element below another element 'invisible'

I have built a simple website which includes a parallax image gallery with accompanying text descriptions for each image. The gallery is underlaid with a simple repeating pattern wallpaper.
The images have no margin between them. Their borders are covered by the text box which has a higher z-index, and the discrepancy between the scroll speed of the images and texts creates the parallax effect.
I would like to allow the background wallpaper (bottom layer) to also be the background of the textbox but to achieve this, I would need to make the middle layer (the image) transparent where it is obscured by the text box.
I have no idea where to start with this - I suspect my best bet is to just ignore this problem remove the wallpaper altogether but perhaps there is a straightforward answer to this issue?
The included image has a semi-transparent text-box and borders to give an idea of the layout and the problem I'm facing. Would appreciate any ideas. thanks

How do I make an overlay be "erased" with text

It's kind of hard to explain, but I want to make a website with a picture as the background, and over the picture a grey overlay. I then want to have some text above the overlay, and where the text is, the grey overlay is removed, so the text is written in the absence of the grey overlay.
I made an example a year ago, with images, but I want to make it in CSS, if it's possible.
Here's the example (sorry for the mess, didn't really know what I was doing back then)
Example Page
Specifically, the text furthest down (most visible) on the page.
I really hope something like this is possible without using images as the text.
Thanks in advance!
This is not possible with CSS. You can do it with SVG though:

FlexSlider: Way to change from displaying images to displaying text?

Regarding flexslider
Is there any way to modify it from displaying images to displaying only text? Or is flexslider only for animating images? If so, can you give me a hint what would have to be changed?
Thank You
For each slide in the slideshow I would like to display varying amounts of text only. And I would like to reliably keep the slider controls responsive and in a standard position on the screen as each slide changes. I am not really concerned with displaying the images.
In some of the li examples which can be found in the zippy-share link below, I associate an image file with the "flex-caption" CSS Selector found in flexslider.css file. Using an associated image file for each text paragraph seemed like my best bet to force the slider controls to stay in that standard position as each slide changed. Am I on the right track?
I am not really concerned with displaying image files.
An html version of this problem can be found at the zippy-share link below:

take a look at the li examples in the main index.html
You can replace the image with the text you want to put. Please remember to modify the minItem and maxItem to fit your need.

Wordpress Custom Menu Images and Style

I'm trying to modify a theme to fit my design in Wordpress. I'm having a lot of trouble editing the menu bar in any way (apart from just colors).
I need to know how to achieve something like this: http://i.imgur.com/hPBo4is.png
Is it possible to just add the image to the menu bar and link certain areas? How can I get this into my website?
Thanks.
you have to crop image with whole black color without text portion and apply as background image to menu's "ul" tag. and then to display that text links you have to play with padding & margin.
thanks
