i don't know about icewm, but for fvwm (and similar), put the 'xv -root -quit background.jpg' line into your .xinitrc (or .fvwmrc or something like that...don't remember right now...on a NT box :-(. that will load it up automatically on start up of X. afterstep has a different system, and remembers your background automatically, if you set it through their option menu...so play around...sorry, i don't know icewm (i'm happy with afterstep :-)
