The wmiir script sets a black background, dunno if it's executed after
or before .xinitrc.
But as lavish said, add your bg setting script/program at the end of
your ~.wmii-<current>/wmiir.
xsetroot is used in the middle of wmiir somewhere to set a black
background, this can be nice to keep, if somehow your images are on a
remote server and not accessible all the time.
