Hi Richmond,

Just group your image in the first card of your stack and execute a
script like this:

on mouseUp
   repeat with theCard = 1 to number of cards of this stack
      lock messages
      go cd theCard
      if (there is no group "My_Image") then
         place background "My_Image" onto this card
      end if
      unlock messages
   end repeat
end mouseUp
