Why is my banner image changing colour to grey?? sahara theme

Topic summary

A user is experiencing an issue where their full-width banner background displays as a grey gradient instead of the intended white or transparent color in the Sahara theme.

Attempted Solution:
The user tried adding CSS code to make the banner background transparent using .banner__media { background: transparent !important; } but this did not resolve the issue.
