Lighten works like transparency, but it won't matter what color is behind your image. It'll lighten things up, so that dark text can made more visible no matter what image you're using.

Darken image

Darken, much like lighten, allows you to adjust how dark the image is so that light text can appear more visible. Use this on light images to create a great effect.
