Updates for 6.5

Set the aspect ratio option and overlay color automatically upon adding a background image. When you add a Background image, an overlay color is chosen, and the overlay opacity is set to 50 automatically. The aspect ratio used as default is the "Original". But it can be changed depending on your needs.
