Import pictures into a custom story?

[Kreekakon]

You could also use billboards if you like. Just open up the material editor, make your new material a "solid diffuse", and load in your picture from the place it asks you for a file under "diffuse"

Billboards sometimes, in my experience, react strangely to light though, so if your billboard is too dark, you can put a small light next to it, and attach it to the billboard.
