Thanks Wolfgang.

I like the way you implemented the solution; however, if I load the pgf/tikz 
libraries with your solution, it still forces the frame to the next page. 

Ultimately I want to load an image and have it framed for the background on 
the part page.  I like the ability that tikz gives me to adjust the opacity of 
the image, which is why I tried to find a solution using tikz.  

So I can find a solution without tikz, but is there one that will work with 
tikz?
