Fpic for UI - keep image saved when closing and reopening patch?

Hey

I'm currently at uni and learning MaxMSP for my module, but since my tutor is useless, i was wondering if there is a way, after adding an fpic object with an image loaded as the background for my patch, that when the patch is opened, the image file is already loaded? I have tried using presets and loadmess, but i can't think how

Thanks
