When I mouseover featured image links to my blog posts, how do I remove the text and the picture overlay so the only thing that happens during mouseover is the image darkens?
Hello @styx626,
Thanks for asking. 
You can add following CSS under X > Theme Options > CSS:
.entry-featured .entry-thumb:before {
background-color: transparent;
content: "";
}
.x-recent-posts .format-standard .x-recent-posts-img:before {
content: "";
}
.x-recent-posts .x-recent-posts-img:before {
background-color: transparent;
}
.x-recent-posts .x-recent-posts-img:after{opacity: .5; background-color:#000;}
