2.- scroll down in the attribute editor until you find the "Enviroment" sub menu, adn expand it
3.- where it says "Image Plane" click on "Create"
4.- now where it says "Image Name" click on the little folder icon and find the picture that you want to put in the plane
5.- if you need to move its size or position play with the options under the sub-menu "Placement extras" until you get it where you want it.
6.- repeat for each camera.

hey
edit: I found the menu, and got to the load part, but my computer crashes out.
This is probably because the picture is too big the way it is, and my computer can't handle it 256 mb of ram. Can't wait till my computer is built. I'm gonna try and convert the picture to a smaller file type see if that helps. thx for ur help.edit: Hey i tried changing the file type to jpeg it was only 22kb, but it didn't work. Crashed out again. I have gotten it to work with a picture of a dog, but that was a .tif anyone know anything about that file type?

Why don't you post the picture file here and maybe I can try to recreate the problem in my computer.
