      Just bought an academic license and I am struggling with a few things.

      Firstly I want to do beauty renders of products for student projects. How do I get a background image to fill the entire background. Messing with the options for background I either get black, a colour which I presume is derived from the image or a portion of the image. I have tried all options and the best I can get is a blurry section of the image used.

      Any idea how I can get say a room or sky image to fill the render background so if I get a 1600x1200 image and render the same it simply fills the background?

      Many more questions I am sure but this is really bugging me. I have done this in other programs and it simply fills the render screen, here is is not so obvious.

        To render a background you need special 360 degrees background images. But if you don't have that, instead a regular photo, insert the photo into the background afterwards using Photoshop or similar.
