Take the pic and put it in the same directory as the rest of your files for that source then code it like so:

(This example uses a file named Login.)
(Makes sure the file type is supported by Byond.)
turf/Login_screen1
    icon='Login.bmp'
    density=1
    layer=5000

Then in map you fill in a large area and it should make it.

It's better to use a PNG instead of a BMP.
