ah .. an easy one 

\defineoverlay[nice][\overlayfigure{something.pdf}]

\setupbackgrounds[page][background=nice]


more advanced thinsg canbe done by stacking backgrounds and/or using layers

One of the approaches is to use things like

    \defineoverlay [TitleGraphic] 
[{\externalfigure[picture-A][width=\overlaywidth,height=\overlayheight]}]
    \setupbackgrounds[page][background={TitleGraphic}] %

Yet another way is using layers. For details please refer to the 
"details" manual.
