Image Cover with LaTeX (on WinEdt)

Any thoughts on how to put a full image (covering whole page)开发者_高级运维 as a cover for a book I am writing on WinEdt (LaTeX)?

Thanks.

Ok solved using:

\usepackage[absolute]{textpos}

\begin{textblock*}{297mm}(0mm,0mm) \includegraphics[width=\paperwidth]{xxx.png} \end{textblock*}

I would recommend having a look at TikZ and PGF:link. It really can't be beat. Here are some examples: link.
