Insert the following into your startup.ps file:

------------------------------

/backpic (moon.rf) readcanvas def % this reads in the appropriate rasterfile
/PaintRoot {
    gsave
    framebuffer setcanvas
    1152 900 scale		% assume normal Sun screen size--FRAGILE
    backpic imagecanvas
    grestore
} def

------------------------------

The prolem with doing just "imagecanvas" (without the scale) is that
it puts your image into one pixel...

Enjoy,
