If I remember correctly, you have to get your file into .pm or .xpm format.
The printed CDE User's Guide and/or Advanced User's Guide has information on setting up the custom backdrops. You might be able to find the info on the web also...

NAME
img-xpm - Img, X Windows Pixmap Format (xpm)
SYNOPSIS
package require Tk
package require img::xpm ?1.4?
image create photo ?name? ?options?
_________________________________________________________________
DESCRIPTION
The package img::xpm is a sub-package of Img. It can be loaded as a part of the complete Img support, via package require Img, or on its
own, via package require img::xpm.
Like all packages of Img it does not provide new commands, but extends the existing Tk command image so that it supports files containing
raster images in the X Windows Pixmap Format (xpm). More specifically img::xpm extends Tk's photo image type.
The name of the new format handler is xpm. This handler does not provide additional configuration options.
All of the above means that in a call like
image create photo ?name? ?options?
[1] Image data in xpm format (options -data and -file) is detected automatically.
[2] The format name xpm is recognized by the option -format.
