If this is the background image, you need to download the file and save it in directory of your skin. It should replace cloud.jpg.

The way I do this is by actually changing the colour of the image.

It should be automatically integrated into Messenger, if the skin works, and that you enabled it in the Preferences menu.

Try reading Willz's guide or the skinning documentation. They tell everything you need to know
