With JQ UI I created a standard slider. I found out how to change some of its parameters: size, min.size, the maximum, etc. but never found a place put a picture. That is: change the slider.

<style>
#slider-vertical {
height: 600px;
background-color: #0F3;
}
</style>
<script>
$(function () {
$("#slider-vertical").slider({
orientation: "vertical",
range: "min",
min: 0,
max: 100,
value: 60,
slide: function (event, ui) {
$("#amount").val(ui.value);
}
});
});
</script>

<div id="slider-vertical"></div>

If you mean changing the green area to an image instead, you can change background-color to background-image or just background and then put give it the URL or location of the image you want. Demo here
#slider-vertical {
height: 600px;
background: url(backgroundImage.jpg);
}
If you want it to be both above and below the slider, you can do it by giving .ui-slider-range a transparent background like so
.ui-slider-range {
/* If you want the same image as the top part of the slider. */
/* Otherwise you can change the bottom portion here */
background:transparent;
}
