If you want to add a picture as the background,
set the picture as the background of the sprite, or locate some child sprite onto the main sprite to show the picture. Textlines created by TLF are all transparent by default.

If you mean append picture as inline graphic at the end of the textflow,

Option 1,
insertInlineGraphic(source:Object, width:Object, height:Object, options:Object = null, operationState:SelectionState =  null):InlineGraphicElement

insertInlineGraphic("http://river-prod.corp.adobe.com:81/Vellum/standalone/langref/images/logoION.jpg",50, 50, null, new SelectionState(textFlow, textFlow.textLength - 1, textFlow.textLength - 1));

Option 2,
var ilg:InlineGraphicElement = new InlineGraphicElement();
textFlow.getLastLeaf().getParagraph.addchild(ilg);
textFlow.flowComposer.updateAllControllers();

mytextflow.textFlow.getLastLeaf().getParagraph.addChild(ilg)

I found that I missed the brackets after getParagraph ...
