THe highly suggested method is to create a plane with the same dimensions as your iamge, and map the image to the texutre.

that is true

gmax has a way of distorting the image size so it fits the viewport. can you imagine the extent of the damage that would cause on your project?Tongue

you should take a look at the gmax tutorials, specially the one about textures to learn how to add your image to a plane Wink

Hellhound,

Send an email to me and I'll provide you with information I never released that explains how you setup a box to hold your images as background.
