Take a break and go study HTML and CSS. Without a familiarity with these
two methods, your learning curve for DW will be astonishingly steep, as you
jump from one mystery to another.

What is an "untouchable" image?

That's easy. You can't prevent this.

Make the image the background of a table cell, a div, or a layer.

Yes. Familiarity with HTML will help you to ask the questions, and to
understand the answers.

Create a CSS rule like this -

td.special { background-image:url(whatever/whatever.gif); }

and then make your cell's markup look like this -

<td class="special">

either by manually changing the code, or by clicking in the cell, right
clicking on the <td> that is selected on the QuickTag Selector region at the
bottom of the document window, selecting "Set Class", and then select
"special" from the list.
