Admins can upload full resolution images to the backgrounds of text cells. This feature has only been used a handful of times and is not available to the general public.

There is an unspoken rule, however, that any user can request [[FP]] to add a background image to their worlds. All you need to do is provide him with an image of your choosing, though FP can deny your request for any number of reasons.

* [[Fern]] once considered displaying a pride flag on the center console for Pride Month 2025.

* [[Scar32]] once requested FP for a background image, but all his submissions were denied for various reasons, such as the fact that one of them was hundreds of megabytes in size.

* There is a bug where background images stay on the screen after teleporting to another world using the [[Chat Commands|<code>/warp</code> command]].

* Animated gifs cannot be used as background images.
