I tried both BorderContainer and Panel, but neither would display an image. I can get the background color to change, but not add an image.
Perhaps a skin will work, but I can't get it to work so far. I've replaced the two lines of CSS with the default class "panel skin" which is over 300 lines long, includes three overrides and other methods and still doesn't seem to have an ability to add an image. Who would have guessed a simple image would bring Flex to its knees?
