how to set background image in basic msi project during run the project?

Hi to everybody on this board
I'm a new InstallShield Dev User!I'm trying to make an installer in order to make people easy install my application.
Well i have a little question: is possible to set a background image during the install process.
I mean it's possible in Basic MSI to set a fullscreen image that will be displayed during install process..i don't mean an image in the dialog box but a fullscrenn image that will be displayed behind the install boxes during install process.
Excuse me if it's a fool question but i tried to set and to look for options in Istallation Designer but i din't find where can i specify the image.:(
thanks a lot for your precius help :)

Hi,

i think u have tagged wrongly. This is relating to Basic MSI (Install Shield) rights??

Anyways, in Billboards section we can apply background themes and images (not sure about images).

But if we want to add custom images, it is possible in InstallScript and InstallScript MSI projects but not basic MSI projects.
