In Rhino: View/Background bitmap/Place should do what you want.

There's quite a good tutorial here:

Thank you very much for the help, Billy! Images imported just as hoped and I can't wait to begin creating my 3Ds.

type in pic or picture frame into the command line and follow the instructions....I usually use jpg for this but there a a number of other formats supported.
also you could type background bitmap into the command line or even just the first few letters ie ...bac

there are tool bars, in the drop down tool bar list for background bit map.
Im not so sure about picture frame....as i usually just use the command line.
hope this helps.
cheers
ps there is rhino on board help for both these functions just use the index.
