plane {z,3 //higher number moves away
pigment {
image_map {
jpeg "file name" //or use any valid type like png
}
translate -0.5 //centers unit square
scale <width,height,1>
//set this to resolution or same ratio as image file
}
finish {diffuse 0 ambient 0 emission 1}
}

 Best advice would be to use the help search and look up image_map  but you
might be able to get something rendered using that above.
