That version runs via web browser. Forms are located on the application server. Files stored on your local disk aren't available to it. Therefore, it is useless to use that image as a background.

Besides, you don't do it that way (by READ_IMAGE_FILE) - in Forms Builder, go to Edit menu - Import - Image. Resize it if needed.

If I were you, I'd prepare image which is already resized so that it fits the form size. Then, when it is imported, it already looks pretty (i.e. you don't have to do anything with it).

Certainly, if the original image is small and then you stretch (enlarge) it, it'll look awful, especially if you don't maintain aspect ratio.
