Put a Picture in Your Background.  To put a picture in your background, place this line in your .fvwm2rc file:

    # set a new background
    AddToFunc "InitFunction"
    + "I" Exec xv -root -quit -viewonly /path/to/picture.jpg
    AddToFunc "RestartFunction"
    + "I" Exec xv -root -quit -viewonly /path/to/picture.jpg

then type ^-Alt-r to set the new background.
