I've been playing with Broomstick for a couple of days, very
impressed. Props to the team.

I'm trying to make a static bitmap background, rather than a solid
color.
Playing around I realise that a Flash Sprite is always placed on top
of the 3D window, even when changing the order on stage.
I tried making a 2D window through the 3D API, but then I can only
choos to have it infront of my 3d content, or completely obscured,
behind another 3d window.

I've come up with a work around though not quite there yet....

I've made a plane in the 3d window and orientated it towards the
camera.
QUestion, is there a simple more effective way that I'm missing?
Can I request a feature to assign a "Background Image" to the 3D
display, or somehow make it transparent?
(I've no idea if this is within the scope of the Molehill API, but am
trying to find out...)

I'd be grateful for any pointers or ideas.

Thankyou :)
