What is included
A msgbox.tga background and a short uiTip.py instruction fragment for the existing TipBoard. This changes the presentation of notices; it does not add a server notice scheduler, scrolling-message system or broadcast permission model.

M2City r1 correction
The created ImageBox now has the not_pick flag, marking the background as decorative so it does not intercept mouse picking intended for the underlying UI. It is parented before __CreateTextBar, so text remains above the image. No full TipBoard class or branch-specific window-destruction decorator is invented.

Integration
Copy the supplied TGA to d:/ymir work/ui/game/noticebar/msgbox.tga in your pack, then merge __LoadBackgroundImage and its call into the existing TipBoard initializer. Add imgBg to your window's existing initialization/cleanup convention and preserve the current Destroy body. If your fork has automatic window cleanup, follow its verified implementation; do not assume ui.WindowDestroy exists in every client. Match TipBoard dimensions to the actual texture, retaining the existing notice-text lifecycle.
Test long notices, repeated announcements, resolution changes, mouse interaction through the bar and client shutdown in staging.

Validation
The supplied Python instruction was read. The revised helper passed fake-ImageBox tests for not_pick, parent binding, position and visible state. No native engine picking or complete client rendering test was performed. The original TGA remains in original/ inside the package; reviewed/ contains only the merge instructions. The archive label is preserved as a provenance clue, not a claim of official Aeldra endorsement.
