The background image isn't being compiled into the help file, because there
is no direct reference to it in any of the source HTML files or any of the
project files (.hhp, .hhc, etc.). The best way to fix this is add the name
of the background image to the [FILES] list in the project (.hhp) file, like
this:

1) Open the .hhp file in HTML Help Workshop.

2) Click the Add/Remove Topic Files button on the Project tab.

3) Click Add.

4) In the File Name field, type *.jpg.

5) Click Open, select the file to use as the background image, and then
click Open again.

Alternatively, you could add a hidden reference to the image in any HTML
file, like this:

<img src="path/BackgroundImage.jpg" width="0" height="0" border="0" />

Either of these methods should ensure that the image is pulled into the help
file when you compile.
