 ### Add a frosted glass background effect
-Frosted glass backgrounds combine the privacy of a blurred background with the customization of your selected image to produce a sophisticated effect resembling frosted glass windows. To achieve this effect, upload a transparent PNG image as your custom background. This image could be your company logo or a unique design. The frosted glass effect will blur the transparent areas of your image, while preserving the graphic as part of the background. To use a frosted glass appearance you must use version `1.1.3` or higher of the [Azure Communication Calling Effects library for JavaScript](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@azure/communication-calling-effects) package.
