Import images to background window

I'm struggling to find what probly is a very simple import. I want to add my own jpg file to the background window. All I need is to use my own still image as a background for the menu page. The Properties window will allow video and audio as background but not my jpg file. The Background window seems impregnable; can't drag and drop; help has no mention of importing to it. There is a way to import as a .psd which means recreating the file. Which I may end up doing.

Right Click->Insert Media
Then move it to the back in Object Order
Is this what you were looking for?

You can't?
It's probably CMYK rather than RGB, simply convert in any Windows utility like Irfanview or Photoshop.
